Johannesburg – Police Minister Nathi Nhleko said on Wednesday that allegations made by suspended national police commissioner Riah Phiyega, that he was colluding with newly appointed senior police officials to have her fired, were bogus.

Nhleko was briefing the media during the opening of Yeoville’s police station.

He said that he had nothing to do with the circumstances facing Phiyega, but rather, it was President Jacob Zuma who had taken the decision to suspend her after recommendations by the Farlam Commission to investigate her fitness to hold office.
