Cele’s spokesperson Lirandzu Themba says Cele will receive a full report on the shootings which took place in Gauteng. He is then expected to visit the scene of the gruesome crime. At the same time, the IFP says that KwaZulu-Natal has 6 000 liquor outlets and does not need more. The comment follows after 4 people were shot and killed on Saturday night at a tavern in Sweetwaters, outside Pietermaritzburg.
