Johannesburg - A 31-year-old Soweto reservist constable was arrested on Wednesday for allegedly accepting bribes in exchange for jobs, police said.

Lieutenant-Colonel Tshisikhawe Ndou said the woman allegedly accepted between R450 and R5 000 from about 20 people to whom she had promised jobs at the Orlando police station.

“After realising that the suspect was unable to deliver on her promise, the complainants visited the station commander and lodged formal complaints.”

The constable was at the station at the time and was arrested when some of the victims pointed her out.

She faced various counts of corruption, said Ndou. - Sapa
