South Africa's deputy national police commissioner, Lieutenant General Shadrack Sibiya, resigned at a disciplinary hearing after being charged with sexual offences. Police are treating his exit as a dishonourable discharge because proceedings were pending. The charges include the rape of an 18-year-old, the alleged grooming of a 16-year-old and human trafficking. He denies them, saying sex with the adult was consensual, and remains in custody.
