Kagiso police can pat themselves on the back for a job well-done because 23 offenders were found guilty last week.
The offenders were found guilty and sentenced accordingly in the Kagiso Magistrates’ Court last week.
The offences ranged from assaulting a police official, shoplifting, malicious damage to property (MITP), possession of dagga, dealing in dagga, illegal possession of live ammunition, assault with the intention to cause grievance bodily harm (GBH), theft, possession of stolen property, house breaking and theft, common assault and drunken driving.
“Kagiso police have work tirelessly around the clock to ensure they eliminate criminality and unruly behaviour in the community. Detectives were tasked to leave no stone unturned. Every suspect must be brought before the court and be tried,” Station Commander of Kagiso Police Station, Brigadier Sipho Ngubane said.
Ngubane has committed himself to bringing hope to victims of crime by making life difficult for criminals.
Ngubane praised his members for their teamwork which secured the convictions ranging from six months up to 10 years imprisonment.
“It is all about hard work, dedication, commitment and a burning desire to bring justice and healing to victims. Securing more than 20 convictions in a week’s time is a great achievement for not only police, but for our community. We are determined to put criminals where they belong.”
