“We would like to take this opportunity to thank the residents in our policing area for the contribution they have made towards rendering our precinct a safer place as far as crime is concerned,” Ramovha said.
“It has been a long, eventful year albeit with ups and downs,” he continued. “Regretfully, we have had several serious incidents throughout the year, for which some successful arrests were made. Those arrested are before our judiciary and we undertake to ensure efficient investigations take place, thereby guaranteeing justice is served.”
He further stated that crime affects everyone, regardless of culture, creed, race and religion. “Therefore, it is paramount that police and society forge and sustain relations. We need to energise, polarise and mobilise if we are to be victors in this war on crime.
“We can never overemphasise the importance of community involvement in our quest to fight crime. Without your involvement, we are doomed…”
He then urged everyone in the precinct to get involved in crime-fighting initiatives, including involvement with the Community Policing Forum.
“To those who will celebrate Christmas, may you have the joy and blessings accompanied by this season. To everyone else, enjoy the special time you have with your loved ones and let us build stronger families for a prosperous country. A very blessed festive season to everyone. Enjoy.”
