“This paper describes and compares three case studies conducted at Gauteng police stations in 2009. It asks whether
and how the Corruption and Fraud Prevention Plan of the South African Police Service (SAPS) was being implemented at
these stations. It does so by comparing members’ perceptions and experiences of the manner in which corruption, fraud
and integrity management manifested within SAPS stations in 2009. It also examines perceptions of police corruption,
and the causal factors that may influence the prevalence or control of corruption and integrity violations. The paper then
considers these findings within a framework of organisational culture and considers how such a culture contributes towards
the prevention of corruption.”
