Sitole knew about Phahlane's activities – IPID's McBride
3 May 2018
Police commissioner Lieutenant General Khehla Sitole knew about former acting police commissioner Khomotso Phahlane's "activities" when he was his supervisor, executive director of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) Robert McBride said at a meeting at which Sitole was present.
"Commissioner Sitole was aware of Phahlane's activities when he was his supervisor," said McBride.
Phahlane is accused of corruption.
McBride said requests for information by IPID during its investigation of the case had been met with resistance from the police, "a long song and dance about declassification".
