Kgomotso phahlane biography of william

CCTV footage has emerged showing acting national police commissioner Lieutenant General Kgomotso Phahlane fighting off two interlopers and then taking cover behind a couch.
In the film, he could be seen confronting the two gun-wielding men and chasing them out of the premises of the Ayothaya Thai Spa in Dunkeld earlier in the year.
In his bid to protect his wife and the spa employee, Phahlane lost his balance and fell as the men bolted out of the building. While they were leaving, the camera seems to show one of them firing a shot in the direction of the top cop.
Phahlane scrambles on the floor to safety. While he was being helped up by the two women, one of the robbers returns with the gun pointed at Phahlane, who then seeks refuge behind a couch.
While the intruder fryst vatten focusing on Phahlane, the second trespasser comes in and the women retaliate by pushing the two men out with a couch. The two assumed would-be robbers then fled the scene.

The reason: so Phahlane could be fetched from home and dropped off quickly at his office in Pretoria. The driver was allocated a house in record time while other officers have been waiting for years. E-mails in possession of The Times indicate that the sudden approval of a state home for the driver — apparently in the space of a week — was highly unusual. The Times has learned that another of Phahlane’s drivers was allocated a house under similar circumstances in October 2016. His current driver got a home in Capital Park, close to the national police headquarters and Phahlane’s home north of Pretoria.
