"She was dedicated, communicated well and was a very outspoken person who loved serving her community with dignity and respect.
"Her death is painful, and it hurts me so much because we worked really well in trying to keep our community safe," Qwebe added.
"Those criminals that did this to our Guffy must pay for what they did."
Cele said in a statement:
She may have been small in stature but her voice against crime was loud and her actions against criminality were clear.
"At all times she was unapologetic in her firm stance against criminality and her untimely death is a loss to the [SA Police Service] and the community of Gugulethu.
"Ours as the police is not to cry but to hunt down her killers and bring them to justice."
