The behaviour by both has come under scrutiny as videos surfaced on social media showing especially soldiers allegedly abusing their power.
DA interim leader John Steenhuisen says people are being harassed by those meant to protect them.
“We will use these platforms to advise citizens on their rights and to raise and lodge their complaints with the relevant authorities and oversight bodies.
“There are numerous videos on social media showing police and army officers increasingly brutalising and humiliating members of the public. Some South Africans were threatened and assaulted in their own backyards and while standing in line to buy the essentials.”
