Breaking local news in Boksburg
Law enforcement authorities in Ekurhuleni are concerned about the high levels and spikes in certain types of crimes in the district.
The team consisted of members from Home Affairs, SAPS, security companies, EMPD, Gauteng Traffic Department, Crime Prevention Wardens, CPF and other stakeholders. “Communities need to understand that the key factor in eradicating crime is arrests and convictions. We encourage the public to be our eyes and ears.
“For example, during the high-density operation on February 8, the teams of detectives have, before dawn, managed to arrest over 240 suspects, of which 148 were arrested for contact crimes which include assault GBH, and rapes amongst others; while 53 were arrested for gender-based violence.”Regarding resources to serve the Boksburg precinct, Sithole hit out at the excuse that the alleged delays are a result of a lack of resources, particularly vehicles.
“We have not yet totally eradicated it, but as law enforcement we have, through these operations and the team that has been assembled specifically for illegal mining in the district, managed to arrest a number of the operators and have had their tools of trade confiscated. “One of them is DMRE, and I must indicate that they are in our district working closely with us to have the abandoned mineshafts sealed. We need collective efforts that must be timeously used to deal with the threat.Boksburg SAPS station commander Colonel Matshedeso Mbele said they have made great inroads into reducing the levels of attacks on delivery riders.
