Sunday World reports that the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) has launched an investigation into a shooting incident involving four National Traffic Police officers in Klerksdorp, North West.
The incident, which occurred on 17 December 2025, is being treated with seriousness by the RTMC, which has placed the officers on precautionary suspension pending the outcome of preliminary investigations. In a statement issued on Saturday, the RTMC said the suspensions would remain in place until clarity was obtained on whether formal disciplinary action should follow.
The four officers have since been arrested and are currently in custody. They are expected to apply for bail and the RTMC said it was awaiting the outcome of the court process before taking further steps. The investigation comes amid growing public concern over the conduct of law enforcement officials and the use of firearms during policing operations.
