FIFTY-NINE police officers ordered to receive a hefty payout after a High Court judge ruled in their favour for salary differences owed since their absorption into the police service (TTPS), have been told that the court-ordered payments owed to them will be delayed until the new financial year.

The disclosure came in correspondence from the office of the Commissioner of Police to attorneys representing the officers.

The commissioner’s office said the police service “remains guided by the court’s order,” but explained that the service had reached its spending limit for the 2024-2025 fiscal year. “Payment to your clients will be made in the new financial year,” he said.
