A warrant of arrest has been issued for national police chief Jackie Selebi, the SABC reported on Thursday.
The SABC is reporting the arrest was secured by suspended NPA head Vusi Pikoli last Thursday. President Thabo Mbeki suspended Pikoli from his job at the weekend, citing a "breakdown in relationship" with the Minister of Justice Brigitte Mabandla. The state broadcaster said it had "reliably learnt" that the National Prosecuting Authority had obtained the warrant. The SABC also reported the NPA secured a "search and seizure document" with the arrest.
NPS spokesperson Tlali Tlali would not comment on the report late on Thursday afternoon. "That is the SABC's story. We can't comment," he told Sapa. National police spokesperson Director Sally de Beer said: "I have been with him (Selebi) all day. He has certainly not been arrested. I just spoke to him and he knows nothing about it."
