Police chief to tell Zuma why she mustn't be fired
Riah Phiyega
NATIONAL NEWS - National Police Commissioner Riah Phiyega is expected to hand over a letter to President Jacob Zuma today, explaining why she is fit to hold her position and why she should not be subjected to an official inquiry.

The Farlam Commission of Inquiry recommended that an inquiry be held into the role Phiyega and North West Police Commissioner Zukiswa Mbombo played around the 2012 shooting in Marikana that saw officers kill 34 miners.

It's up to the president to decide whether Phiyega will face an inquiry and whether she will be suspended during this time.
