The Consequence of Crime

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

On the evening of the 20th of November I attended a Prayer Service for two people who had been victims of a crime. The crime had happened the Saturday before in what was apparently a house robbery but devolved into the shooting of both the people in the house. One person died and the other critical in hospital. The suspects shot at security as they responded to the scene and fled into the night, leaving a great many questions and, at this stage, no real answers. It was the prayer service, however, that made me think more than the crime itself. Perhaps we are inured to crime, or that it is so shocking that we don’t really let it touch us, but the service, as small and personal as it was, had a great impact on me as to the realities of

crime. I stood by the group that gathered and listened as they talked, as the priest and the dominee prayed, and I realised that the effect of the crime was a deep and communal thing. The shock on the faces of those that heard the shots, or who had been to the scene, was palpable, and it was clear that the crime was not only committed against the two that were the targets of the crime, but also against the neighbours and the community. People lost friends, felt the fear, and suffered as a result of this, and still suffer yet. It was in this moment that I realised that we, as community, need to stand together as community, to make ourselves strong and to be a people, in the old understanding of the word, instead of just what

we are, which in most cases is actually a group of individuals. The horror of crime is not so much what it does to the dead, but to the living, and we need, deeply and in a meaningful and powerful way, to build community and to make it work. There are people in most areas that do try to make this happen, and truth be told I myself am part of doing such things, but I have to say that it has never been demonstrated so powerfully as it was standing outside the home of a murdered woman and seeing the candles burn, hearing people talk and realising that this is the very thing that should drive us to outrage, not fear or sorrow, and we should stand together to help each other to make our homes safe again.

45 Pretoria Rd, Fairleads

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

The first fourteen days of November alone saw no less than seven Armed Robberies reported to CMS in the areas. This is a large number and we likely can expect it to get worse, but one thing that seems to be an increasingly common factor in these robberies is the fact that they are not only armed but are in larger numbers. In certain areas it is clear that they are well prepared and even seem to be trained, judging by the strategy

Armed and in Numbers that they are using. This being said it raises the risk to security that respond to the scene, and if they respond unaware of the severity of the situation it can lead to injuries or even death. In a couple of incidents over the past few months it was clear that they were in fact awaiting the arrival of the security and had planned with the

intention of ambushing them as they arrived. The more warning and information that might be obtained prior to responding can be critical to the security responding, and especially businesses should look carefully at the security that they have in place to minimize the risks and maximize the safety for their staff and for the responding security.

In an amazing stroke of luck a man was nearly robbed by armed men but managed to escape and raise the alarm on the 17th of November. He was sitting in his vehicle outside a house in a complex when five men dressed in overalls arrived in a white vehicle and entered the complex. The suspects approached the man, grabbed him and tried to push him into the house. The man managed to get free and started to run. One of

the other residents in the complex heard the commotion and seeing what was happening she quickly phoned CMS to respond. The suspects realised that they had been spotted and fled the complex. It just goes to show that good neighbours make very good friends indeed! It was definitely a very lucky thing that the neighbour was quick to call for help when she saw what was happening.

Bank Followings Continues BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

It is very clear to me that the criminals spend time watching the banks, and they do so very carefully. The modus operandi is to keep an eye on who goes into the bank and even sometimes have someone in the bank to pass out information, and they watch for who goes in and get money. Now I have been told before that it “cannot be like this” as the security at the bank is too good, but two cases that occurred recently show that this is exactly how it happens.

took his cash. It is clear to me that the suspects knew very well that both of these people had a large amount of cash on them. Especially as we approach Christmas, please do all that you can to NOT carry cash on you. As much as it might be an irritation or a bother, or even if I costs a little more, it is far safer to do transactions electronically. The safety of you and your family outweighs all else.

The first case that I noted occurred on the 17th of November where a lady went into a bank where she withdrew a large amount of cash, after which she left and drove straight to a funeral home to make a payment. As she arrived at the funeral home, a black vehicle stopped behind her, two suspects got out and followed her inside. They gunpointed her, took her handbag where her money was and fled the scene. The second incident also happened on the 17th of November when a man went to a bank, withdrew money and then drove to a business in Boksburg where he intended to buy goods. As he arrived on the premises a maroon Audi drove in behind him and once inside, they assaulted the guard and tied him up, then gunpointed the man and

Dog Poisoning and Burglary

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

On the 3rd of November suspects entered a property in Fifth Avenue in Northmead and poisoned the dogs so that they could burgle the house. At least two of the dogs died according to the report back, poisoned with what appears to be “Two Step”, which seems to be the most commonly used poison in this area. It seems that the suspects forced open a window but were then unable to break through the burglar bars. The suspects nevertheless managed to either reach in or enter as there was a laptop missing as well as music equipment. A fishing rod was also found nearby. CMS was on the scene to assist and the CMS Dog Poisoning Unit came to help clean up

the scene and remove the deceased animal. Our pets are our family as much as they are also our defense against intruders and we need to be aware that the poisoning of animals is likely to increase as we approach Christmas. It is also wise to note that it is not simply about removing the animals at the scene but also to do a proper clean up as any poisons left behind may be eaten by any other animals that you have and thus could also die. We need to watch for any food items that are in the garden that we did not put there and remove it immediately, yet at the same time we should do so without touching the potentially poisoned items so as to avoid poisoning ourselves!

Make a Diﬀerence!

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

I was reading back through some of the released statistics of crime in our area, and I came across the release of the official statistics from the SAPS, and I looked at in some concern as I realised that by and large, this is OUR area, and yet it remains almost impossible to get people to do something in many cases. At best most just want to leave the country. This country can truly be a paradise, and there is actually no reason at all why it should not be, given all the hard work that people have done to transform it in to the rainbow nation?

regard for race, religion or gender, that will take any help they can get no matter what, and who are in fact the ones that make our communities livable. Look at the Homestead Helpers in Farrarmere, just as one example, who have made the dam the best on the East Rand? What about the Litter Bugs, also in Farrarmere, that pick up rubbish. And what has rubbish to do with murder? The more people care, the more they look after their community and each other and the harder it is for criminals.

Despite all this though, in a year’s period of March 2015 to April 2016 Benoni alone had 55 murders and 54 rapes, not including any other crimes. Looking at this I gave myself two options – do I sit and moan about this, or even run away? Or do I take the matter seriously and get out there and make a difference?

Think about it like this. You know your family, so if I were to walk through your house, you would know immediately. Because you know and care who they are, and I would be out of place and therefore unable to walk through without notice. Is this not the same in a community? Take note of your street, care about your neighbours. Start there with just that and already you will have made a difference! Then maybe we can start to see a decline in figures that are frankly scary.

There are people in every area, from business groups, to CPF, to precincts that all want to make a difference, and who are trying, with little or no

Roof Robbers

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

On the 19th of November suspects went to a shopping center in Northmead and locked themselves in the bathrooms. Once inside they methodically cut their way through the roof of the bathroom and crawled through there into the areas above the adjacent shops. They then cut the alarm for the shops below and climbed down into them to steal all kinds of stock. They then took a grinder and cut into the safe at one of the shops and then cut their way out through the safety gate at the back and fled the scene. They clearly had this planned out very well indeed, and it also shows that if you share a building with someone else, be it a shop or a home, then your

roof may be vulnerable, and it may be a good idea to put some kind of security inside the roof too. The shops, being what they were, did have good security at their doors and inside, but I guess that no one thought the toilet needed much, and once the suspects were in the roof they were able to cut power to the stores. Police and security were on the scene to investigate, and I am sure that they will be working hard to discover who these suspects are, but it does indeed show that when it comes to security you really do have to think like a criminal, and try hard to keep ahead of their plans.

Theft and Recovery

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

It is a true fact that when it comes to crime prevention the key factor that makes or breaks almost all crimes is speed. The criminals are trying to be as fast as they possibly can to take the goods and leave, while security is trying to be as fast as possible to respond to the scene to catch the criminals before they flee. An attempt to take a bakkie from a premises on the 15th of November was foiled due to the fact that the CMS Patrolman was out doing his rounds and was keeping a sharp eye out for trouble as he did so. As he came to the corner of Longmore Road and Van Ryn Road in Crystal Park he noticed a bakkie parked by the road and as he approached two suspects fled the bakkie on foot and into the dark. Realising that there was indeed something amiss the Patrolman investigated and called in to report. The police arrived and it was ascertained that the bakkie had indeed been stolen. It seems that

the suspects had cut through the fence to enter a premise and then poisoned at least one dog (a second dog was missing) to steal the vehicle. Patrolling vehicles in your area does indeed make a difference in crime prevention! Condolences to the family for the harm done to their dogs – it is a true fact that dogs are a serious threat to the criminal community and sadly they are often the first target when the criminals want to get into your home.

We often give warning to residents about being careful when entering and exiting their properties, but the truth of the matter is that it is not only the residents, but the businesses as well. On the 12th of November an armed robbery took place at a business in Innes Road in Jet Park. As the staff were opening the gate to leave the premises, the suspects went in. They went up to the guardhouse and overpowered the guard and tied him up with shoelaces and a cell phone charger cord. They did this at gun point. A truck, and its driver, were then

removed from the premises. The tracking unit was traced and was found dumped by the side of the road in Delmore Park. Police and CMS were on the scene. As of writing this story there has been no reports of what happened to the truck or the driver. This incident shows that there needs to be increased security at the gates of businesses and better control of who comes in and out. This is of course a difficult thing to achieve as the point of business implies that there needs to be a fairly free flow of customers coming in and going out.

Armed Robbery in Impala Park

Car Thefts

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

Car thefts in the areas have, it seems, skyrocketed. Looking at the different areas it seems that the criminal set are going at the cars in an amazing way.

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

On the 11th of November three suspects, one of them armed with a handgun, derailed the gate of a property and forced open the front door of a home to hold the owner at gunpoint in the kitchen. They then found the lady of the house in the living room and held her up as well, taking them both to the bedroom where they forced them to lie face down on the floor. They then proceeded to steal televisions, laptops and jewellery as well as cell phones. The suspects then fled the scene. The victims were only then able to go find a phone and report the incident. The incident allegedly happened just after three in the afternoon, though the call came through only after six, once the victims were able to make it. Fortunately there were no injuries reported from the scene. This robbery is typical in that the items that the suspects were aiming for are the same ones that are always the target, and from what I have seen on the reports the criminals watch the house for

clues as to what they might get inside. They rate the target by the rubbish that is seen thrown out, especially at Christmas, and if they see boxes from electronics and so on, they know that they have a rich target inside. They also make note of the vehicles type and numbers, so as to assess the general income of the family and the likelihood of expensive movable items. To this end residents should avoid public displays of wealth where possible and should they have to throw out packaging for items like this it should rather be taken to the dump or if suitable, burned, rather than giving the criminals clues as to what you have in the house, especially at Christmas time.

Drugs and Prostitution BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

The crimes of drugs and prostitution are very often seen together, and as we have said before, they are crimes that are fueled by the community. A complaint that came in from the community recently pointed out that there are drug addicts that are on the streets in some areas, such as Western Extension, that are openly shooting up, apparently without fear of any consequence, and of course in certain streets, despite the efforts of some in the community, the prostitutes are visibly hawking their ‘wares’.

PCN 24 November 2017

Tell us your story! Email: info@thepcn.co.za or Phone 011 578 5674

The only answer that I can give to such things is that the community needs to take note, and if possible a picture as proof, and send it in to the local CPF so that they have a large amount of proof of the incidents to take on and demand some kind of action to help to resolve the problem, or at least alleviate it. The great thing about our country and its constitution is that we have a voice, but at the same time the voice is useless if we do not use it, and for it to be heard it needs to be used collectively.

In Western Extension alone there were two cars stolen on the 18th of November and looking at the social media groups it is getting worse. Members of the community are getting concerned about the increase, and it seems that the local CPFs are finding that they are having to be ever more vigilant. Security in the areas are, of course, already prepared for the ‘Christmas rush’ and they have noted the areas that are being affected and are watching the entrances and exits to areas. It has been established that the criminals are coming from as far afield as Soweto, and they favour a fast getaway on highways or into squatter camps where people find it hard to find them and are leery of venturing into. Speaking to the police they confirmed that while all cars are at risk, there

is a definite love of Toyotas, but pointed out the important thing to do is to ensure that vehicles are fitted with alarms and trackers, as without such things the chance of recovery is basically none as the criminals are capable of not only stealing the vehicle but also of stripping it down at an alarming speed! As a CPF member commented, they had followed a vehicle to where it was recovered, and even though it had taken no more than an hour from theft to recovery, it was a shell when they arrived. This being the case, members of the community are wanting more visible presence of police in their area and have been getting vocal about the issue in some cases. One community member said at the scene of one such theft, “It is sad to see that the car thefts are on the rise again in our area, and that SAPS are not visible enough to deter the thieves.” As Christmas approaches and the pressure increases, on wonders what will be the most practical way forward to deal with the situation?

Who Does What? Understanding the Police

Aging Gracefully!

BY PHILIP ALLEBONE

Recently I was sent a letter by a member of the public asking what the different police departments do, since it seems that should we have something to report it becomes confusing, at times, just who we should be talking to? There are, of course, several departments within the greater body of the police, and in general most of them do not deal with the public at all, unless there is a particular circumstance, such as the Forensic Department or the Tactical Team. The ones that we are most likely to deal with however are the SAP and the (in this area) EMPD. Now most of us think that the EMPD are the ‘Traffic Cops’, and this is not untrue, but at the same time they have a wider purview than just traffic. The main function, according to a report that was sent out, of the Metropolitan Police Department includes traffic policing, by-law enforcement and crime prevention. However, they do not investigate cases after arrests, as this is the function of the Detective Service of the South African Police Service (SAPS). The detectives are thus there to do investigation of cases. SAPS, which includes VISPOL and other departments deal with the area of policing that we are more familiar with, such as responding to crimes, and doing the work of visible policing. What this means to the public at large is simply this – if there is a crime, by which I mean a theft, a murder, and so on, then it is the SAPS that has jurisdiction of the situation. If however we are dealing with a traffic offence or crime prevention on the roads or a bylaw infringement, then it is the jurisdiction of the EMPD. This is, of course a rather simple explanation, but to cut the story short, if you have, say, a problem with noise pollution, then it is EMPD that must respond, not SAPS. Of course, both EMPD and SAPS are police officers and as such have every duty and power that goes along with it, and should either see a crime in progress they can and will react to it and both may make arrests of a suspect.

PRECINCT ABBREVIATIONS: ABP - APEX BUSINESS PRECINCT ACP - ATLASVILLE COMMUNITY PRECINCT APHA - ALPHEN PARK HOMEOWNERS ASS. AVCP - ACTONVILLE COMM PRECINCT

The two do, at times, cross over in their jurisdiction and do work in support of each other, so it may seem as if they do each others job, at times, but when it comes to the protocol of who should respond, the bottom line is that when calling it in you should call 10111 because not only do they at the call center know to whom the complaint must go, it also logs a reference number to prove that you did call the complaint in so that if needed it can be shown that the complaint was made. When it comes to ‘cross border’ interaction the situation may become even more confusing as the areas that SAPS work in do not match the areas that Metro will deal in. EMPD have areas that they cover, just like the SAPS do, hence the reason why you get EMPD on the East Rand and JMPD in Johannesburg. SAPS generally also have to stick to their areas, and these are demarcated by the station, so in this area Atlasville falls under Boksburg North Police Station, Farrarmere falls under Benoni, while Pomona and Bredell fall under Kempton Park. These are all local policing structures, and there are also provincial (who operate all over the province) and National, which will be called in as the severity of the crime requires it. In certain cases the police of another area may be called to work in the area if the situation warrants it, and so in a case where we saw drugs being sold (allegedly) from a house in Western Extension, police from Brixton were called in as it was deemed that such an outside body would have no links here at all and so an unbiased dealing with the situation could be ensured. Other departments such as SARS and Customs will also have units, but these are specialised units and deal with specific areas of work and may not necessarily be area bound. As has been said, all crime is crime, and so making your call go first to 10111 is the correct and wise way to go forward with the situation.

It’s rare that we stumble across vintage gems nowadays, however we were totally in awe of this well preserved, double storey Victorian splendour, well known as Villa Victoria, set in the quiet suburb of Benoni, which is 105 years old! Beautifully furnished with antiques, the finest china, silver and linen, the house is dressed by its beautiful green lush gardens and pathways with various bench placements in particularly striking parts of the garden where visitors want to stop and gaze at the landscape. We were invited by Anamari Thompson to celebrate the anniversary of this graciously old Victorian Executive Guest House. Villa Victoria Guest House was established in 1992 however Mrs. Thompson moved into
