Woman ‘forced to strip for cops’
Police have identified two officers allegedly involved in forcing a Pretoria woman to strip naked while they took pictures of her in the nude.
Police spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Tshisikhwawe Ndou said investigations were continuing but there had not been new developments.
The officers were being investigated internally and police were trying to resolve the matter.
Marina Kloppers, 23, a marketing consultant from Pretoria and her friend, Charise de Wit, 22, were returning home from Hatfield in the early hours of July 21 after a friend’s birthday when the alleged incident happened.
The two had been driving through Mayville when they noticed a police van following them.
Because they were suspicious, they did not want to stop at a red traffic light so, with hazards on, drove slowly across the intersection.
Within moments the policemen were following them, blue lights flashing. The officers allegedly forced them off the road.
Two policemen made them get into the back of a van and took the women to a clinic in Laudium to test their blood alcohol levels.
Kloppers alleged that while at the clinic, one of the policemen ordered her to strip so he could photograph marks on her body.
She was charged with defeating the end of justice.
