# Johannesburg mayoral committee member for Public Safety, Mgcini Tshwaku, has expressed outrage over the unlawful arrest of five Johannesburg Metro Police Department Tactical Response Unit members and two Vehicle Recovery officers by police in Bekkersdal. The officers were detained during a legitimate vehicle recovery linked to an alleged illegal mining kingpin.
