Cele explains foreign national’s arrests - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

Cele was responding to questions to the Peace and Security Cluster in the National Assembly.

Economic Freedom Fighters MP Hlengiwe Mkhalipi wanted to know how the police plan to deal with attacks on foreigners in Gauteng. Mkhalipi also asked whether the attacks were not sparked by the recent arrest of foreigners, many of whom were alleged to be trading illegally on the streets of Johannesburg.

“Unfortunately as the South African Police we are not looking on xenophobia, we are looking at criminality. If you break the laws of the country, whether we are South African or we are foreign nationals, we are going to act as such on you. The last question that you raised… there are many foreign nationals that are African and others that are trading legally in South Africa. We have got nothing to do with them whatsoever. We don’t even come close to them.
