The accessibility of firearms in the province has been a cause for concern for years now.

Criminals are becoming more brazen and better-equipped with automatic rifles, commercial explosives and high-speed vehicles.

A still grieving Ngcobo says she believes that it is far too easy to get an illegal firearm, exacerbating the crime situation in communities. “The crime in Umlazi township was too high but we have managed to decrease it by working with police. The killing of people by guns is still high and petty crime is not high as it was. We have formed local structures in each every section and the formation of street committees helped a lot,” adds Ngcobo.
