Gwamanda said he hoped the police would leave no stone unturned in their investigation into Sithole’s murder.
“As a city, we are most grateful for his diligent service and contribution in our efforts to root out malfeasance,” said Gwamanda.
“Without fear or doubt, I can expressly confirm that the city will not be deterred in its efforts to fight against corruption and malfeasance. If indeed Mr Sithole is a victim of his contribution to this effort, in his name we will ensure that we flush out the air from the chambers of our city for those who are corrupt and involved in nefarious activities,” he said.
“While all possible leads must be assessed, investigated and tested, this must be done with due diligence and sensitivity to the family and colleagues of the deceased and to avoid placing the lives of others, the colleagues of Mr Sithole in particular, at risk.”
