However, whenever life and property are endangered simultaneously, the use of lethal force will be warranted.<\/p>\n<p>The panel was chaired by the late Judge David Sakelene Vusimuzi Ntshangase comprising security and subject experts, police union representatives as well as senior officials within the visible policing division in the SAPS. The aim of the panel was to analyse the recommendations of the commission and work towards the professionalisation of the SAPS, in line with the strategic imperatives of the national development plan.<\/p>\n<p><b>Related Video:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>[email protected]<\/p>\n<p><b>Political Bureau<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
