It says despite having over 152 000 trained officers, the South African Police Service is not able to carry out its mandate effectively. He says, “We have seen that murder increased by about 35% in the real figures since 2011/2012. Year on year there are huge increases from 15 500 to over 21 000 murders last year. You look at aggravated robbery and you see similar trends there as well and increase of almost 40 percent since 2011/2012.”

So the question is what happens to other murders, other robberies that are not part of the so called priority crimes.
