HUMAN RIGHTS - SCJ and WC Police Commissioner discuss their concerns regarding human rights activist Angy Peter

In today's show we were joined by Joel Bregman - Senior researcher for the Social Justice Coalition and Western Cape Police Commissioner Arno Lamoer. They were on the line to raise their concerns as SJC is accusing some members of the South African Police Service in Mfuleni and Khayelitsha of harassing and intimidating human rights activist, community leader and leading member of the SJC’s criminal justice campaign Angy Peter since last year. SJC believes her work of putting pressure on police and others responsible for safety and justice to do their jobs correctly, and her exposure of poorly performing and corrupt officials is the reason she is now being targeted. In response Commissioner Lamoer said their concerns will be addressed. For further information you can contact the SJC on (021) 361 8160 or visit www.sjc.org.za
