Provincial police this week warned that criminals were using cemeteries to find their next victims.

Eastern Cape graveyards are not always a place of peace and rest.“This warning comes as there has been a notable increase in robberies at the Forest Hills cemetery in Humewood,” said Col Priscila Naidu.

“Since April, at least five robberies have occurred at the cemetery. The robbers threaten the victims with knives and rob them of their personal belongings. In some cases, they request the vehicle keys and then steal whatever is in the vehicle. The robberies occur at any time during the day. The suspects are usually in a group of between four and eight,” Naidu added.“The area is quiet and the robbers lie in wait for their victims.
