Police general attending EFF gala dinner demonstrates contempt for crime-burdened public
31 July 2023
It is extremely alarming that a police general who is second-in-command of Crime Intelligence sat at the same table as an alleged gangster at a gala dinner hosted by the EFF, whose leader, Julius Malema, once again incited people to murder farmers this past the weekend.
The actions of Maj. Gen. Feroz Khan are disgraceful and a slap in the face of all South Africans who are heavily burdened with crime and widespread corruption. It also raises questions about how serious the police force is about combating farm murders.
According to media reports, Khan was a guest at a lavish gala dinner last Thursday in Ekurhuleni to celebrate the EFF's tenth anniversary. He sat at the same table as the controversial tobacco-giant Adriano Mazzotti.
Khan's presence probably also reinforces Malema's apparent idea that he is above the law when it comes to making statements that incite racialism and the murder of farmers.
