smacks of racism and yet everone will deny it
24/07/2008 08:59
This must be the most absurd dismissal yet, that the commission ratified it, is an acknowledgement of their bias and total incompetence. - Realist |

Corruption
24/07/2008 08:59
This is just another corruption case in the government. Makhele said if Wrensch appealed, he would be suspended, without salary and benefits, pending the result of the appeal. What the hell does Makhele think he is? God of the police force. There should be a thourough investigation on this and Wrensch should have a fair hearing.... this is just wrong.

As police officer in the New South Africa you may coerce bribes, sell criminal dockets, steal citizens belongings, fail to uphold the law, abuse state assets, drive without a valid license etc but good (Choose Deity of your choice) you use the word "Oh Fornicatus" [oh fuck] and dont say "Oh Merde" [Oh Shit]
or dont tell some one "Hey you Mentula and verpa" [aka :Hey you Dickhead)...

Tired of conspiracies
24/07/2008 09:03
"Some claimed that one of the clerks he had complained about is a relative of a staff member in the office of the MEC ...They could not give the names of these people".Can't a person be dismissed without a conspiracy theory these days?Reminds me of rumours that Mugabe's wife is related to Mbeki's wife,that's why he doesn't shout at him,and of course the rumours are not true. - Godfrey |

Where there's smoke there is fire...
24/07/2008 09:04
and I am sure there are more sides to this story. However at face value, smacks of racism or at least some sort of personal grudge agains Wrensch. I am afraid that "helpful and very capable" are no longer criteria to be employed, especially if you are a white male... in SA, today. Crying racism??... no..stating a fact!! - Sean |

Setting an example...
24/07/2008 09:16
And Selebi has way more serious allegations against him, and he gets his contract extended by Mbeki....We need all the cops we can get, and they fire him, because he said, fuck you, eishhh....wtf? - Fatcats...purrrfect |

WHY WAS HE SWEARING?
24/07/2008 09:20
It is because some idiots think that they can use swear words anytime anyhow because they have no respect to this government, and they think they will hold the gov at ransom that this person is skilled, no one is indispensable.If rude get rid of him set an example that rudeness will not be tolerated - scorpion |

and so our woes continue,

losing another good cop when there are so few of them left.but old Jackie gets his contract renewed for another year ,even though he is suspended on full pay mind you . my stomach turns at this discrimination. sue the pants of them , Mr Wrensch. - jerry |

Eh?
24/07/2008 09:22
So, if we look at the news lately it is better to shoot at the superior, ala jhb metro, or strike, blocking all the freeways and then be suspended for 6 months, full pay than swearing in front, not at, but in front of a superior?
Would love to hear the other side of this story.

Racist Dismissal.
24/07/2008 09:25
The officer who "arranged" the WHITE Policeman's dismissal can't stand the fact that his intelligence has once again been questioned!!!! Does he know the meaning of the "F" word or does it mean sorry I'm not falling for your jokes anymore. This is disgusting and if anyone should be fired it should be the arsehole who said "You'r Fired" - Yvonne |

Is Makhele an idiot? How can someone be dismissed and then after an appeal is lodged, being suspended without being reinstated first? - Frikkie |

Hit them hard.
24/07/2008 09:28
This happened to me to about 8 years ago. I didn't appeal but went straight to the CCMA. I won so much money in settlement I still have some on investments. Hit them hard. - NowOrNever |

"F" Word Dismissal
24/07/2008 09:29
Oh my Goodness - the F word can stand for so many
things like - Funny Face; Fart Face,; Fanagalore;
but what is really stands for is that the Pilce Force Officers appear to be TOTALLY F......Up. - Yvonne |

24/07/2008 09:33
What a joke! "From the police force's perspective, he is no longer in the service" The SAPS is no longer a force! This has been so since 1994! - Watchdog |

Getting rid of the whites
24/07/2008 09:35
Supt Meyers, former head of the dog unit in Cape Town was fires for a similar petty transgression. Its all to get rid of any remaining white officers and replace them with incompetence. When will these idiots ever learn that you cannot replace experience? Even reservist white officers were dismissed as there were not enough black officers ? this in a voluntary organisation!!!!! - James |

Swear and get fired! Maybe Sup. Wrench should have murdered, smuggled drugs and stolen the computer system he helped set up instead. At least he would have been sent on a paid holiday!! I hope he sues the Govt. and that he gets a nice sum to retire on. Wake up scorpion, are you honestly going to sit there and say that you have never sworn at work?!?!? - Jez |

@Scorpion...
24/07/2008 09:37
In your exalted opinion; is rudeness a more deserved reason to terminate someone's employment, or is any of fraud, corruption, dishonesty, theft, incompetence or failure to arrive for work more deserved? - Tuffy |

This is not racism but HATE
24/07/2008 09:38
This is 2008 and people shouldn`t label every conflict between black and white as racism. Its just pure hate or grudge. - PRIGO |

Suspended, without salary and benefits...
24/07/2008 09:40
And Selebi's contract is renewed, so that he can have free representation. What a disgrace. - Hendrik |

Unbelievable
24/07/2008 09:53
Something?s definitely cooking here, maybe just the normal corruption thing, nothing too serious. Looking at our beloved Selebi and 100s more, I didn't think it's possible to get a dismissal when part of the police force. Maybe the guy was just too good a cop, and we don't want any of those around now do we. - petepan |

So what is Racism.......
24/07/2008 09:54
White's "dicsriminating" against, and being "unfair" to Blacks are deemed as RACISM. The reverse of Black on White is seen as APARTHEID. Just another way of ensuring that Whites will have NO PLACE in any area of business in South Africa within the next 2 years. - Politician |

Why?
24/07/2008 09:54
So if Mr Wrensch was only guilty of swearing then he shouldn't have lost his job. But if God forbid he complained about a family member of a prominent MEC. FIRE HIM!!!! - rich |

Confusing
24/07/2008 09:58
It's amazing how quickly a police officer can be fired for swearing when bribery and corruption charges mean months of suspension on full pay!! - Jann |

|

Wow
24/07/2008 09:58
..this "punishment" is so OTT. I remember a story where a woman was raped repeatedly in police custody because the A*sh*les put her in a male jail cell -and then failed to do the rounds as they are supposed to. All involved were suspended with pay for 3 months. He lets his language slip and he's fired for it? def more going on here - VG |

No respect for Black man!
24/07/2008 10:00
White people think it is normal not to respect black people (obvoiusly that is how they were raised). That is exactly why this police man used that kind of language in front of his superior. I work with white people and I see such behavior every day. Stop this nonsense. Learn to respect everyone. - Sam |
