A Newzroom Afrika journalist and her crew were man-handled by a police officer while covering a case solved by the City of Joburg MMC for Public Safety. Despite being invited to film at the station, the officer interfered. The MMC swiftly condemned the incident. This adds to a long history of police misconduct in South Africa, including cases of corruption, drunk driving, and officers being arrested for crimes.
