Former top cop Phahlane loses fight to be reinstated, Labour Court upholds dismissal

In trying to get his police job back, former national police commissioner Khomotso Phahlane suffered a legal blow.The Labour Court, however, did not slap any costs order on the axed commissioner.

Phahlane, the Johannesburg Labour Court ruled, was right to be fired in October 2020 when he"intentionally or negligently" broke the Public Finance Management Act in refusing to honour a R46-million SAPS contract to purchase 360-degree panoramic cameras.SAPS entered an agreement with Ethemba Forensic Group , which Phahlane failed to abide by, telling EFG that its equipment bid offer"was misleading and not compliant with the specifications".
