South African authorities dismiss Major General Richard Shibiri from the South African Police Service following a disciplinary process. Both reports say the police force fires him after a misconduct-related finding and that the case involves allegations that he brought the SAPS into disrepute. In one account, the disciplinary outcome leads to the termination of his employment, and the other describes the process as recommending his dismissal after a hearing. The sources characterize Shibiri as a senior figure associated with organized crime units within the SAPS. Neither report provides details about the specific misconduct allegations, the evidence presented, or whether Shibiri has the option to appeal the decision. At the time of reporting, the information focuses on the fact of the dismissal and the disciplinary finding behind it. The SAPS decision is presented as the culmination of internal disciplinary proceedings rather than an external criminal prosecution.
