Africa-Press – South-Africa. Deputy national police commissioner for crime detection, Lieutenant-General Shadrack Sibiya, has lost his bid to return to work.
The Pretoria High Court dismissed Sibiya’s urgent application, which would have seen him return to work, after being placed on leave of absence in July.
Sibiya has been battling his boss, National Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola, in court over whether the decision to place him on a leave of absence was lawful.
Sibiya’s attorney, Ian Levitt, said this was not the end.
“Whilst our client respects the decision of the court, and after consultation with our client, it is his instruction to appeal the judgment.”
