NPA to prioritise cases of those arrested during Gauteng and KZN violence

There has been strong condemnation by the National Directorate of Public Prosecutions (NDPP) of the lawlessness and criminality ravaging South Africa. Scores of people have been arrested in Kwazulu-Natal and Gauteng as sporadic violence and looting continue. The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) said those taken into custody would have their cases prioritised once they reached the courts. THE NDPP and the leadership of the National Prosecuting Authority are monitoring developments to better organise the NPA to respond appropriately. Lukhona Mnguni speaks to the NPA’s Advocate Mthunzi Mhaga about this.
