The South African Police Service (SAPS) has suspended nine police officers who served as members of the Bid Evaluation Committee in the Medicare 24 tender process.
The Police Service says have been placed on suspension pending the finalisation of disciplinary and related investigations.
Earlier this morning, the SAPS confirmed the dismissal of organised crime boss Richard Shibiri.
Shibiri’s dismissal followed a disciplinary hearing conducted last month.
In a statement the SAPS says, “The disciplinary proceedings were conducted in accordance with applicable SAPS prescripts and principles of procedural fairness. Major General Shibiri was found guilty of misconduct relating to conduct that brought the organisation into disrepute, including associating himself with a known criminal.”
