Police Minister Bheki Cele says police visibility is vital to prevent the scourge of crime.

Cele and the national and provincial police management conducted raids in different areas of Gqeberha on Saturday night.Gqeberha has seen a rise in mass shooting incidents in the past months.“We are trying to work on preventative measures in places like where we are today. Shebeens and taverns are also very much high in terms of murders.

So the police today, around here we are more than 200 different units working [together]. We have different warrants, search warrants, warrants of arrests that we will have to execute, as we are doing the work today. So we are trying to be more preventative,” adds Cele.Police Minister, General Bheki Cele and the National and Provincial management of the SAPS, join Eastern Cape’s crime prevention operations, focusing on some of the troublesome policing areas in the Gqeberha area.

In my view crime prevention does not only depends on police invisibility,we need crime intelligence services,pro active arrest & that will lead to the closing down of crimal network. SAPS must step investigation capabilities,criminal syndicate cellphones must taken FORENSIC

Police are criminals

Actually arresting and prosecution of criminals will work even better...

We want to volunteer

This was in place, long before the ANC took to power. That means, you and the ANC failed because that was your loophole to disaster.

No original ideas, this bra is an empty vessel, the only thing police stations are good for these days are to certify documents, ANC ruins everything they touch

Here we have cable theft taking place in front of a police station. So much for the 'visibility' of our police force.

That's all?

That doesnt make sense. Who on earth would commit crime in the presence of the visible police.

Great peach, does not equal visibility!
