“The water cannon is the safest method used to disperse crowds during protests and for crowd control. This is one of the provincial [public order policing] unit's most needed resources to effectively deal with and manage protest action,” Moodey said.
Mazibuko's answers revealed that the unit had 661 members in Gauteng, with most in the Johannesburg district . Apart from the water cannon, the unit had 57 nyala vehicles, five helicopters and two aircraft. Moodey said Gauteng residents deserved a police service that was adequately resourced to keep them safe in their homes and on the street.
“I will be tabling follow-up questions to the MEC in the legislature to ascertain what plans are being put in place to ensure that our [unit], that is severely under-resourced, is given the resources it needs to combat crime,” he said.
