The Western Cape Premier Alan Winde visited the Kraaifontein Police Station on Monday, calling for improved resources and infrastructural support for the South African Police Service SAPS in a bid to tackle the escalating crime rates gripping Cape Town.
The visit was driven by the urgent need for direct engagement with police precinct leadership, particularly in areas like Kraaifontein, where violent crime has severely impacted the daily lives of residents, Cape town Etc reports.
The residents of Kraaifontein are understandably concerned and frustrated by the impact of violent crime on their daily lives. Through these oversight visits, I want to engage directly with priority SAPS precinct leadership to ensure that everything is being done to tackle crime head-on, stated Premier Winde during his visit.
