In South Africa is not only people who are in trouble with the law. Right now the law is in trouble with the law. Is Gerrie Nel a bad cop, or Jackie Selebi a good cop. I think Nel is a bad cop and Selebi a worse one. Between this two gentlemen who is investigating who? The scorpions who are well resourced obtain a warrant to arrest the SAPS Selebi. The warrant is cancelled after the sacking of the NPA boss Vusi Pikoli. At the same time the SAPS obtain a warrant to arrest Nel, the arrest is delayed but finally takes place.
Nel is behind bars, Selebi is a free man. Is there a force that is protecting Selebi? If indeed he is being protected, does it mean that he is guilty of something? We have an overwhelming statistics of crime in this country; murder, robbery, fraud, rape to mention a few. All this social ills must be fought by people, SAPS, Scorpion and other agencies. How are we going to combat crime if the leaders of the law enforcement agencies are busy pointing fingers at each other?
Everyone must be equal before the law. If Selebi has transgressed, he must be brought to book. Let's just wait and see what is going to happen with Nel and Pikoli. Justice must prevail.
