Destruction and theft costs taxpayer a fortune

"Why are our SAPS not being more proactive and monitoring this situation?"

EDITOR – I’m sure by now most of you have noticed all the steel light poles along the M7 between Rossburgh testing grounds and the N2 have been cut down and the copper wire removed.

Four concrete poles were then put up at the intersection of the M7 and Wakesleigh Road which were also smashed at the base and pushed over to get to the copper wire. I have now seen the steel poles in Wakesleigh Road and on Hans Detman Highway which were only put up a few months ago starting to be cut down as well.

It must be costing the taxpayer an absolute fortune for all this destruction and theft. Why are our SAPS not being more proactive and monitoring this situation? Surely, at the scale at which this is happening, somebody must know something.
