Palisade fences are being stolen more often now lately. The back of Milnerton Primary School is missing a lot the school fence.
Most recently Dereleen James, founder of the Yellow Ribbon Foundation (YRF), which is situated right next to Lancea Vale Secondary School, was a victim of this crime.
Khorombi said, “Eldorado Park SAPS members arrested the 45-year-old suspect, for the possession of stolen goods. The goods belonged to the Non-Profit Organisation, which is the Yellow Ribbon Foundation.”
James stopped the police and asked for assistance from the police to help her trace her stolen goods as well as to arrest the suspect. Her efforts were not in vain as they recovered her goods and arrested the suspect.
Khormbi said, “We are appealing to the community of Eldorado Park to ensure that they should not buy stolen goods. The YRF is an NPO and it is here for the community of Eldorado Park, to assist members of the community who are victims of the social ills here in this community.
“This organisation belongs to the community; you cannot steal something that belongs to you. What is the purpose of stealing? You as the community always complain about not having facilities for certain things and now you do (YRF). Anyone who witnesses such crimes should report to the police immediately.”
