## Resource

ActionSA is suing the South African Police Service to overturn its “not guilty” verdicts against two top officers accused of covering up a $10 million theft from President Ramaphosa’s farm — a case that contradicts findings from the Public Protector and IPID. The party claims the SAPS investigation ignored key evidence, skipped critical witnesses, and accepted the officers’ stories without proof — a blatant failure of accountability. They’re demanding the court nullify the findings, enforce Public Protector recommendations, and release full disciplinary records to Parliament’s impeachment committee — all in the name of restoring public trust.
