DA leader Mmusi Maimane addresses Bonteheuwel community in Cape Town, where he spoke about crime and what the local government intends to do to curb it.

DA leader Mmusi Maimane on Monday addressed the Bonteheuwel community in Cape Town, where he spoke about crime and what the local government intends to do to curb it. He welcomed the deployment of the SANDF but added that it is not sustainable. "I want to send my condolences to the officers who were attacked in Delft and of course one of the members lost their lives. As South Africans, we need to be aware that we are in a war against crime. You are South Africans who are our heroes.

""When we campaigned in 2019 and in 2016, we said to the people of South Africa, 'we're going to fight crime.' We are serious about that, we're not going to back down. Gangsters must know that there is a force coming against them and you are the people who are fighting that battle.""I want to welcome the SANDF to communities, but I don't want our communities to be in permanent presence of the army.
