Popcru said it was trying to verify the claim and why the officers rejected the accommodation.
“It is disheartening that this happened. These guys are overworked‚ especially during festive and Easter seasons‚” said Popcru spokesman Richard Mamabolo.
Mamabolo said officers often do not complain or retaliate because they are “threatened with suspensions and dismissals”.
He alleged such mistreatment towards officers is not nothing new in the organisation.
“I think the treatment these officers have been receiving from the RTMC has been inhuman. This is on the basis that even in Centurion; they are housed at an open veld with 1 toilet‚ which has to be shared by both males and females. This is a health hazard and management has not done much to change these conditions.” said Mamabolo.
