CoA brings sanity to DIS/DCEC long-standing feud

Friday, July 05, 2024 | 510 Views |

We commend the Court of Appeal (CoA) for bringing sanity to the long-standing turf wars between the country’s security organs, the Directorate of Intelligence and Security (DIS) and the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Crime (DCEC).

This decision follows the raiding of the office of the former Director General of the DCEC, Tymon Katlholo early 2022 and his staff officer by the DIS operatives who reportedly took files that they had targeted.

After all back and forth arguments, the CoA has set the record straight giving an invaluable lesson to the DIS that it was no super security organ and it does not have any powers to cogently supervise other security organs including the DCEC.
