Police Minister, Bheki Cele, has appointed Victor Ofenste Senna as the new acting head of Ipid, with effect from Friday.
Johannesburg - Police Minister, Bheki Cele, has appointed Victor Ofenste Senna as the new acting head of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate , with effect from Friday.
"Senna gained his much impeccable experience in his early managerial years while working as director for finance for the department of science and technology for a period of eight years," the police ministry said. Cele is expected to meet with Ipid senior management and provincial heads next week ahead of his meeting with the Portfolio Committee of Police on Wednesday, to introduce the new acting head to members of the committee.
His legal team filed notice with the court that he intended to apply for an urgent interdict against a decision by Parliament's police portfolio committee to confirm a decision by Cele to not renew McBride's term -- which expired on Thursday, February 28 -- for another five years.
