Fourteen Mitchell’s Plain police officers, including station commander Brigadier Cass Goolam, will resume duties tomorrow Thursday November 23, after being suspended for two months.
The 14 officers were suspended on Monday September 18, after an internal audit reported that 15 state-issued firearms went missing from the local police station in August.
On Thursday September 21 newspapers reported Brigadier Goolam, the head of Visible Policing, all the relief commanders and all of the Community Service centre commanders were suspended.
A police source said Colonel Jan Alexander, who had been serving as acting Mitchell’s Plain police station commander, will return to Steenberg police station.
