Fourteen South African police officers have been arrested for corruption along the Mozambican border, Police Minister Fikile Mbalula said on Friday in Emanguzi in KwaZulu-Natal.
“We arrested 14 police officers who were suspects in criminal activity and corruption along the border, we brought in a new police force into this place.”
Mbalula visited Emanguzi earlier this month following protests by the community due to cross-border crimes.
After he listened to the people during the visit, he made an undertaking to go back with a comprehensive strategy to deal with matters raised.
He said a fence would be erected alongside the border to make it difficult for criminals to cross into Mozambique with vehicles.
