Meet Gen Johan Booysen - bloodied but unbowed ex-cop still fighting SA’s criminals

Having worked his way from a ‘Bobbie on the Beat’ to a SAPS General when it meant something, former KZN Hawks boss Johan Booysen has lived an adventure. With challenges including mass media vilification through a bizarre stitch-up engineered by criminals (and their captured politicians) through to being wrongly arrested and jailed. This authentic South African hero has paid a high price for following his calling. He retraces some of those footsteps here, sharing deeper insights on Eskom, ANC cadre deployment and other matters of the moment. He spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.
