MOSSEL BAY NEWS -  A KwaNonqaba Police Station officer is set to appear in court in January for allegedly uttering a racial slur against the station's CPF chairperson, Shadrack Shishana, on 29 May this year.

Shishana opened a case of crimen injuria at the station after the officer had driven onto the station's grounds where he was standing and talking to someone, and allegedly called out the slur to him.
