The Labour Court in Cape Town has ruled that a disciplinary hearing against policeman André Lincoln, driven by national police commissioner General Khehla Sitole, be halted pending the referral of the matter to a bargaining council.
This comes about a week after the Labour Court in Johannesburg interdicted Sitole from going ahead with the hearing against Lincoln’s colleague Peter Jacobs, previously the head of Crime Intelligence and now heading the police’s Inspectorate.
Both Lincoln and Jacobs face allegations relating to the security of Lieutenant-Colonel Charl Kinnear who was shot dead outside his Bishop Lavis home in Cape Town on 18 September 2020.

His lawyer, Dirk Uys, handed in an affidavit in the next leg of the prolonged bail application in the Blue Downs Regional Court on Monday that stated Modack thought the charges against him were vague and confusing. There’s more to this story Subscribe to News24 and get access to our
