South Africa's police minister, Senzo Mchunu, has been suspended by President Ramaphosa due to serious corruption allegations.
These accusations, leveled by a provincial police chief, involve alleged payments and interference in crucial investigations.
Mchunu denies the claims, asserting they lack evidence and proper procedural fairness; a judicial inquiry is underway.
The suspension, announced amidst widespread corruption concerns, has sparked both anticipation and criticism from opposition parties.
