Gauteng Police Department

Mr Adams, via email communications dated early November 2024, expressed concern about interference in investigative processes by the Gauteng Police Department and Western Cape Police, and urgently requested Ministerial intervention to ensure integrity of investigations concerning opened cases and intercepted dockets.

“I urgently and humbly ask for the Minister to intervene and ensure the integrity of investigative processes maintained to ensure a fair and just outcome.”

Mr Adams claimed his opened cases' dockets were intercepted and that the Gauteng Police Department was interfering in investigative processes following a similar modus operandi to the Western Cape Police.

“I was told that the dockets were intercepted. However, I have also been notified that the Gauteng Police Department has followed the same modus operandi as the Western Cape and is interfering in the investigative process.”

Honourable Fadiel Adams opened cases in the Western Cape on a number of senior SAPS personnel as per CAS dockets from Grant Central and Orlando SAPS in October, but those dockets were intercepted and investigative interference was occurring from the Gauteng Police Department similar to the Western Cape PC.

“I have opened cases in the Western Cape on a number of senior SAPS personnel as per following CAS dockets as per Grant Central ... I was told that the dockets were intercepted ... I travelled to Gauteng and opened following dockets as per Orlando SAPS ... the Gauteng Police Department has followed the same modus operandi as the Western Cape PC and is interfering in the investigative process”
