Deputy Chairperson, I move without notice:
That the Council -
1) notes the brutal slaying of three brothers, Xolisani Memela, Mzothiswa Memela and their younger brother Zi-khaliphele Memela, who were shot and killed by the police on suspicion of being criminals;
2) further notes that the police claimed that they had been attacked by the deceased and had retaliated in self-defence;
3) acknowledges that the case is being investigated by the Independent Complaints Directorate, ICD; and 4) takes this opportunity to condemn in the strongest possible terms this incident and calls on the National Police Commissioner General Bheki Cele and the ICD to ensure that the case is prioritised.
Motion agreed to in accordance with section 65 of the Constitution.
Deputy Chairperson, I give notice that I shall move on the next sitting day of this House as follows ... [Interjections.] Oh, this is supposed to be a motion without notice. Sorry, I was making a mistake.
Hon Bloem, if you are still thinking about what will happen next week, could you take your seat.
No, no, no, Madam. This is a motion without notice. [Interjections.]
Hon Mlenzana, there is a microphone. Follow the procedures, please. Let's not fight over trivial matters. Respect has to be kept in this Chamber. Continue, hon Bloem.
