Cape Town tourists will have added protection this festive season.
The City of Cape Town and the Western Cape Government announced that their tourism safety units are being boosted with more hires to reduce crime during the peak tourist season.

During a parliamentary Q&A in August, Cele said that the Constitution of South Africa specifies that the policing services are structured to operate under the national commissioner, who has the power to manage the SAPS.
