Hawks and the South African Police Service (SAPS) are said to be at each other's throats over the murder case of slain Orlando Pirates and Bafana Bafana goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa.

Sunday World understands that the docket was requested from Gauteng Hawks boss Major-General Prince Mokotedi by Major-General Kotsi Nkomo, who is the SAPS's divisional commissioner of detective services in Pretoria.
