AfriForum Boksburg’s neighbourhood watch recently participated in AfriForum’s national mass patrol.
The patrol was undertaken in partnership with the SAPS, local community policing forums and other neighbourhood watches.
In the East Rand, 234 AfriForum members and 308 other patrollers covered 13 869km with 219 vehicles.
The neighbourhood watches assisted with 25 incidents.
“Visibility plays a critical role in crime prevention and AfriForum’s Gauteng neighbourhood watches will continuously take on projects and organise regular patrols in cooperation with the SAPS and safety institutions to put a stop to crime.
“AfriForum’s safety team thanks the SAPS and CPF for the excellent cooperation and coordination during the mass patrol,” says Stephanus (Butch) Blignault, AfriForum’s district coordinator for the East Rand.
AfriForum Boksburg’s deputy chairperson Francois Reyneke said the patrol was a huge success and expressed his gratitude towards those who supported the event.
