DA demands answers about the deaths of JMPD trainees [SOUND]

# The DA in Johannesburg has written to the mayoral committee member for Public Safety, Mgcini Tshwaku, to request an urgent meeting. The party says this to discuss the circumstances that led to the deaths of two trainee candidates of the Johannesburg Metropolitan Police who allegedly died following a JMPD physical fitness assessment a week ago. The DA’s Solomon Maila says the two candidates, Michael Nyambi and Zwelethu Tekete, were part of the JMPD’s process of recruiting and selecting 500 police officers for the 2025/2026 financial year:
