A Western Cape police officer is under investigation after allegedly broadcasting anti-foreigner remarks from a police van, Timeslive reported. The incident, which sparked public outcry, is being probed by South African law enforcement authorities.
The broadcast, described as a live stream from an operational vehicle, included comments deemed offensive toward foreign nationals. The South African Police Service has confirmed the investigation, though no further details about the officer’s identity or rank were released. Timeslive cited the incident as occurring in late June 2026, with the report published on June 30.
In a separate development, Paul O’Sullivan has implicated businessman Feroz Khan in underworld allegations, according to eNCA. The nature and scope of these allegations were not detailed in the report, but the claim has drawn attention amid ongoing scrutiny of organized crime networks in the country.
eNCA’s report, published on June 30, 2026, attributed the allegations to O’Sullivan without specifying whether formal charges or investigations have been initiated against Khan. Authorities have not yet linked the two incidents, but both highlight growing concerns over misconduct and criminal influence in public institutions.
