The Gauteng High Court in Pretoria dismisses an appeal lodged by suspended Mpumalanga provincial police commissioner Lieutenant-General Semakaleng Manamela, according to IOL. Manamela seeks to challenge a decision by a board of inquiry. The court ruling represents a legal setback for her in the matter stemming from that inquiry.
The report indicates that Manamela remains suspended at the time of the ruling. The appeal is dismissed by the Gauteng High Court, meaning the underlying board-of-inquiry decision stands for the time being. Beyond confirming the court’s decision and the status of her suspension, the available information does not provide further details on the grounds of the appeal, the board’s specific findings, or the court’s reasoning.
Based on the information provided, the key outcome is that Manamela’s attempt to overturn the board-of-inquiry decision fails at the High Court level.
