Le major général Siphiwe Sangweni de la Force de défense nationale sud-africaine a déclaré que le comportement des soldats lors des déploiements intérieurs est guidé par un code de conduite. Le briefing a eu lieu devant le Comité permanent conjoint sur la défense. Les déploiements visent le gangsterisme et l'exploitation minière illégale dans le Gauteng, le Cap-Oriental et le Cap-Occidental.

Le major général Siphiwe Sangweni de la Force de défense nationale sud-africaine s'est adressé au Comité permanent conjoint sur la défense concernant la conduite des membres de la SANDF lors des déploiements à l'intérieur de l'Afrique du Sud. Il a souligné que de tels déploiements sont autorisés par la Constitution et la législation pertinente. Les soldats adhèrent quotidiennement au code de conduite. « Celui-ci n'est pas réglementé ni appliqué formellement. C'est dans nos exercices quotidiens que les soldats doivent et seront rappelés à respecter le code de conduite lorsqu'ils sont déployés. Les soldats formés savent pourquoi ils sont soldats et comment ils doivent se comporter avec la population », a-t-il déclaré. Les déploiements impliquent une assistance à la police pour combattre le gangsterisme et l'exploitation minière illégale dans le Gauteng, le Cap-Oriental et le Cap-Occidental. Cette opération s'inscrit dans des efforts plus larges, y compris une approche basée sur le renseignement comme indiqué dans des déclarations connexes.
