  "account": "The National Inquiry into Gender-Based Violence and Femicide, currently underway in Johannesburg, is set to hear a presentation from the South African Police Service (SAPS) on Tuesday morning. On the first day of the five-day inquiry, the police faced heavy criticism from the Commission for Gender Equality (CGE) regarding gender-based violence and femicide. Acting National Police Commissioner, Lieutenant General Puleng Dimpane, will be among the top SAPS officials presenting the police's report.\n\nOn Monday, the CGE released a scathing report exposing the criminal justice system's shortcomings in tackling the national crisis of gender-based violence. The commission carried out various investigations, including interviews with victims, which revealed significant gaps within the criminal justice system. Thoko Mkhwanazi-Xaluva, chairperson of the CRL Commission, added that the inquiry will further investigate systematic failures within the justice system.",
