Violence has also come at a cost for the police with 22 of their colleagues having lost their lives during this period.
Police Minister, Bheki Cele, says the rate at which women and children are abused, violated and some killed in South Africa remains worrying and unacceptable. Cele briefed the media in Pretoria. According to Cele, it was determined that 5083 of these incidents occurred at the residence of the victims or perpetrators. He says murder and assault cases are a growing concern. “Six-thousand-662 assault GBH cases were domestic violence related. This means the perpetrator and victim had some type of domestic relations. 7 004 people were killed by other people in the second quarter of 2021/22.”Mpumalanga is the only province to report a decrease in rape incidents.
Police say there has been a significant progress towards ending the DNA backlog at their forensic service laboratories. Cele says this has assisted a great deal in expediting prosecution of GBV cases, among others.
