Action Society has submitted a complaint with the Office of the Public Protector to request the following matters be investigated urgently:

  1. the failure to deal with the backlog of DNA evidence in a sufficiently expeditious manner; and
  2. the failure to effectively manage and maintain the PCEM system.

The parties responsible which must be investigated are the Minister of Police, Bheki Cele; the DNA Oversight Board; the South African Police Service (SAPS); the State Information Technology Agency SOC Ltd (Sita); and President Cyril Ramaphosa. These parties have, through their inaction, or alternatively their unduly delayed and insufficient action, allowed this status quo to persist much longer than is acceptable.

Action Society believes that the DNA Backlog has become a human rights violation which undermines South Africans' Constitutionally entrenched rights to equality, fair administrative action as well as access to courts. Add your voice to our Public Protector complaint:
