Some people in Reiger Park, east of Johannesburg, say they hope that the plans by Acting Police Minister, Firoz Cachalia, to end the ongoing gang violence in the area are not just empty promises.
Cachalia and high-ranking police officials held a ministerial stakeholder engagement with community leaders, promising that a plan has been put in place to deal with the on-going violence.
Earlier this month, six people were killed and three others wounded in a drive-by shooting in Reiger Park .
