JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) – South African
President Jacob Zuma has suspended National Police Commissioner Riah
Phiyega, pending an inquiry into allegations of misconduct, his office
said on Wednesday.
Zuma’s office in September launched an investigation into
the police chief’s role in the 2012 killing of 34 miners by officers
during a violent wildcat strike over pay at the Marikana mine run by
platinum producer Lonmin
The presidency said a three-member board would look into
whether the country’s first female police boss and other senior police
officers had concealed information on decisions they took while handling
labour unrest at Lonmin’s operations.
