An unknown man's corpse assaulted by the community was found with the community members forcing it into a toilet pit. The CPF members reported that the Loate police were informed but did not bother to show up at the scene.

The angry residents believes that the criminals are the cop's friends. Responding to community criticism, Mthethwa appealed to residents to continue to cooperate with the police and not to generalize incase of any wrong doing.

 He concluded by addressing the residents that the state is awareof any corrupt element in the system, but not all the officers are corrupt. A task team will be set up to investigate all allocations relating to Loate police station.
