INCREASE IN SERIOUS CRIME: COMMUNITY MEETING HELD IN PARKLANDS
Robbery on the rise RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj
T
able View police say an increase in serious crime over the first few months of the new financial year is concerning. The financial year runs from April 2017 to March 2018. At a community meeting held last week at CBC St John’s in Parklands, Table View police station commander, Colonel Dirk Vosloo, told those in attendance that incidents of murder, attempted murder, assault, sexual offences and all robberies have shown a decrease compared to April and
May, but that this is not the case for June. “There has been a slight increase,” he said. Vosloo said robbery especially is of concern. “In terms of robberies this month, we experienced a problem month.” Incidents such as car hijackings, house robberies and business robberies – also termed trio crime – have become a general problem in terms of other crimes, he said. “We will have to do something about it,” he told residents. Vosloo said a meeting is also scheduled to take place later this month with business owners of restaurants following a robbery and shoot-out at two different 24-
hour take-away establishments on Sandown Road early last month. “We will meet with them to hear what resources they have available to secure their businesses, because they are vulnerable.” They are aiming to identify the groups responsible for the robberies, make arrests, establish an informer network, and encourage the business owners to utilise the resources at their disposal. According to Vosloo, many suspects involved in past robbery cases came from elsewhere and not necessarily the West Coast. “People come from as far as Steenberg, Gugulethu, Lwandle and Khaye-

litsha to rob. They seem to think that wealthy people stay here,” he said. Vosloo said one way of tackling crime in the area is to build partnerships with the business sector, but to also build on the existing partnership between the police and community organisations such as street committees and neighbourhood watches. The community meeting was held on Thursday 29 June and was attended by members of the local neighbourhood watches, street committees, ward councillors, armed response companies, the Table View Ratepayers’ Association and CPF.
