Peter Magosi should step down

In just over two weeks, we saw suspended agents win a case to stop the DIS harassment; Bruno Paledi and Keabetswe Makgope had charges against them for aiding and abetting unlawful possession of weapons dropped. Adding to this, the founding DIS boss, Isaac Kgosi, won back his confiscated guns. The DIS also faced embarrassment when the indefinite suspension of Deputy DIS DG, Tefo Kgotlhane, was ruled unlawful by the court.

Reports have surfaced that the DIS conducted surveillance on private citizens without proper authorisation. This blatant violation of privacy rights is unacceptable and undermines the very principles on which our democracy is built.
