With his law enforcement career beginning in 1986, Gauteng's new police commissioner, Tommy Mthombeni, has a vast amount of experience. He invited Muhammad Hussain to Krugersdorp Police Station to chat about himself, the police, and crime.
"Everybody is a victim of crime, whether directly or indirectly," including Gauteng's new police boss, Lieutenant-General Tommy Mthombeni.
In January last year, Mthombeni was robbed at gunpoint while in plain clothes, picking up his dry cleaning in Midrand. His "private, licenced" firearm, two iPhones valued at R30 000, a Patek Phillipe watch, a Gucci bag, a Panorama belt, and some cash, all valued at about R6 000, were stolen.
