“Every resident of this township who is a peace-loving person is welcome. People donated a minimum of R5 per person. The level of crime in this area is alarming, and residents have come to a point where they simply accept living with it. We want to change that mentality and claim back our streets,” said one of the movement's leaders, who also wanted to remain anonymous.
One resident said, “We will be working together as residents to identify and apprehend criminals. We will stop criminals in their tracks. We want to stop any criminal activity here. Police spokesperson Capt Andre Beetge urged communities to work with police to identify and apprehend criminals.
