The recently installed closed circuit cameras at police
stations have certainly proven their worth but instead of
capturing the activities of outside characters, it captured a
policeman stealing cash from the Ruimveldt Station.


The rank who obviously forgot that the cameras were installed
was captured on tape removing an undisclosed amount of cash,
reportedly in the thousands, which was lodged at the station
over the past weekend.
Police officials have not confirmed the incident but this
newspaper was reliably informed that the cash was discovered
missing when senior officials turned up for work on Monday.
No one initially admitted to removing the cash but a review of
the recorded camera images yesterday showed the cop removing the
money.
He was taken into custody while he was on duty and is likely to
appear in court soon.
