Chairperson, on behalf of the DA I move without notice:
That the Council -
1) notes with grave concern -
a) the alleged assault of Mr Nkabinde by members of the public order policing, POP, unit in Newcastle on 25 April 2011;
b) the failure of the SAPS charges against Mr Nkabinde;
c) the invasion of the Nkabinde home by the POP members;
d) the continued assault of Mr Nkabinde in his home in the presence of his children;
e) the dragging by male members of the SAPS POP unit of the 19- year-old daughter of Mr Nkabinde naked from the bathroom; and
f) the spraying of the members of Mr Nkabinde's family with pepper spray;
2) therefore calls on the Minister of Police to take immediate action to ensure that the ICD fully investigates these allegations and that, if true, the culprits are dealt with without mercy; and
3) further calls on National Police Commissioner Bheki Cele to desist from instigating members of the SAPS to deal violently with members of the public and in particular to desist from using his "shoot to kill" instruction to members of the SAPS.
