Tomorrow, 23 August 2023, Western Cape Premier, Alan Winde, provincial Minister of Police Oversight and Community Safety, Reagen Allen, and Western Cape Police Commissioner, Lieutenant-General Thembisile Patekile will present the first quarter crime statistics for the province.
Premier of the Western Cape, Alan Winde said, “Fighting crime is complex and we are demonstrating that by utilising data, evidence, and technology, we can make inroads, despite the odds. We, however, still have a very long way to go. This engagement provides us with an opportunity to interrogate and identify what we can do better as the provincial government with all our law enforcement partners.”
Minister Reagen Allen said: “I am looking forward to presenting these statistics to the residents of the province. It is important that we keep our residents abreast of the crime reality, along with the manner with which we are addressing this evil that continues to plague our communities. As the Western Cape government, we remain committed to working with all law-abiding stakeholders to fight crime in its entirety.”
