DPCI officers

There is an article from the Daily Dispatch dated 30 December 2014 reporting Mr Bellochun's arrest for soliciting R30,000 from a spaza shop owner and being apprehended when the outstanding R3,000 was paid.

“There is an article dated 2014, December 30, from the Daily Dispatch, whereby Mr Bellochun was arrested on a sting operation by the DPCI officers for the very same conduct, whereby he was soliciting R30,000.00 from a spaza shop owner, who only raised R27,000.00 and promised to pay him the outstanding amount of R3,000.00 on the Saturday, which is then the day that he was apprehended when that R3,000.00 transaction took place.”

Major General Gerber did not investigate General Khan; his report focused solely on the conduct of DPCI officers, disproving Witness I's statement that Gerber concluded Generals Khan and Kadwa were doing their job.

“the Commission has received evidence that Major General Gerber was not investigating General Khan. That report looked into the conduct of just the DPCI officers. So that is also untrue.”

The LCRC (Crime Scene Examiner) should have been contacted at the crime scene, but FSL was called and declined to attend as it was not a clandestine lab case.

“According to the protocol and the national instruction, the DPCI officer's ought to have contacted a crime scene examiner from LCRC. As indicated earlier, the FSL is contacted where the crime scene is a clandestine drug laboratory. In this instance, the LCRC had to be contacted. According to the version recorded in the factual report prepared by Maj-Gen Senona on 9 November 2021, the DPCI officers stated that they called FSL, Forensic Science Laboratory, on the standby number in order to attend the scene, but FSL stated that they could not attend because it was not a clan labs scenario.”
