Law enforcement operations will continue for at least another three months.

Western Cape minister of community safety Albert Fritz welcome news the SANDF would be deployed to the province with a big sigh of relief.

Over four years later, there has been very little to suggest that the Senzo Meyiwa murder case is close to being sold, but Bheki Cele believes 2019 is the year.

Police Minister Bheki Cele has delivered a stern warning to undocumented foreign nationals for the remainder of the festive season.

South African police officers who have worked hard for many years wil finally get the promotions they deserve.

Bheki Cele had some words for those who blamed the SAPS for the mess that took place after the festival.

The Minister of Police did say that the war is far from over.
