Located in Johannesburg – The acting minister of police, Professor Firoz Cachalia, has made a strong statement denouncing police brutality and public unrest, stating categorically that South Africa “is not a banana republic” and that everyone must adhere to the law. Cachalia addressed the growing number of reports of police brutality and alleged excessive force by emphasizing the need for a delicate equilibrium between the two competing demands of law enforcement and constitutional responsibility.

“We cannot tolerate lawlessness,” Cachalia stated during a recent briefing, referring to the country’s history of police abusing their powers. “Dealing with violent criminals does not exempt police from operating within the law.”

Public outcry over lack of safety and allegations of overbearing police presence typically intersect in neighborhoods hit hard by gang violence, robberies, and drug-related crimes, which is why his comments come at a time of increased tension in such regions. Even while police must take firm action to reduce crime, Cachalia made it plain that they are not immune to legal consequences. He emphasized that human rights must not be sacrificed in order to protect law and order. “Every officer’s actions must be guided by accountability and integrity.”

A larger effort to restore faith in the police is reflected in the minister’s remarks, which stress the importance of professionalism, openness, and constitutional compliance. The government is under pressure to reduce widespread crime without resorting to authoritarian police tactics, and Cachalia’s position demonstrates a recommitment to legitimate and ethical security governance.
