Chairperson, I hereby give notice that on the next sitting day of the House I shall move on behalf of Cope:
That the Council -
1) notes the apparently questionable and unprofessional conduct of Metro Police Constable Velemina Mojela regarding the preservation of blood samples for forensic investigation subsequent to the arrest of Molemo "Jub Jub" Maarohanye;
2) acknowledges the deteriorating levels of professionalism within the service leading to the collapse of trials because of evidence becoming inadmissible through negligence, collusion and incompetence;
3) acknowledges the delays occasioned through such failures by the police which cause a drain on state resources; and
(4) recognises the failure of the government to clearly demarcate the boundary between SAPS and Metro Police over cases.
