Police have launched investigations into a case in which an internal memorandum directed to police commanders over harmonised elections was leaked to the media and the public.
Police said the leaked memorandum was a communication guide that was meant for commanders and not for public or media consumption.
In a statement, national police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi said investigations have since been launched with a view to identify the culprit who leaked the memorandum and the motive behind it.
