Gugulethu/Everest march against crime

The community of Gugulethu and Everest informal settlements are planning a march to the Springs Police Station on Friday.

The South African National Civic Organisation (Sanco), on behalf of ward 72, will hand over a community petition to the police.

Paulos Dube from Sanco, says Sanco officials will accompany the residents.

The march will start at 10am, at the corner of Welgedacht and Enstrada roads and the residents will walk along Welgedacht Road towards the police station.

The march is to put an emphasis on crimes that are on the increase in these two informal settlements.

“Many community members lost their lives due to crime and too many women were raped in the area,” says Dube.
