Deputy president Paul Mashatile says the government is intensifying efforts in the fight against crime by giving resources to specialised units and investing in advanced technology.
Mashatile was speaking at the annual police commemoration day in Pretoria on Sunday, attended by the families of 27 officers and reservists who lost their lives in the line of duty between April 1, 2024, and March 31.
We are resourcing specialised units, investing in advanced technology, strengthening intelligence, and tightening laws to deal decisively with those who target police officers, Mashatile said.
