Captain Molefe Mogodi, spokesperson for Bramley Police Station stated, “All the incidents of driving under the influence were as a result of operations that have been on-going in the area. Our community is once again advised not to drive while knowing that they have taken or have been consuming alcohol.”
However, with these major crimes and grim figures, there was at least a bit of hope. The station saw a decrease in crime and Mogodi said, “We have registered far less crime this festive season compared to previous festive seasons and we give our thanks to the men and women in blue who went out of their way to serve the community with pride and will continue to do so throughout this year.
“Members of the public who have any information should not hesitate to call 1011 or visit your nearest police station,” said Mogodi.
