The South African National Defence Force (SANDF) on Wednesday announced that it will be ceasing its operations at the country’s border posts in March 2009.

According to the SANDF head of Communications, Siphiwe Dlamini, the SANDF would continue to provide support service at a request. Dlamini said the decision to withdraw troops at border posts was taken at a higher level.

The South African Police Service (SAPS) will replace the troops. “As the SANDF we do not have arresting powers, but we will continue to support the police in patrolling the borders,” he said.

Currently, the SANDF and SAPS are jointly monitoring the country’s borders. He indicated that the SANDF would continue with its partnership with the SAPS.

South Africa’s border posts are Lesotho, Mozambique, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Namibia and Botswana. With regard to the staging of the 2010 Soccer World Cup in South Africa SANDF chief of Joint Operations, Lt Gen Themba Matanzima, assured soccer fans that the SANDF would be on standby to ensure the safety of all soccer fans. He said that the SAPS was playing a leading role in security issues pertaining to the 2010 FIFA World Cup. “Should a request be made for a reaction force the SANDF will assist,” he said.
