Illegal firearms are linked to civil unrest, political and taxi industry assassinations and organised crime
The report said there were many reports of private security companies being involved in shoot-outs at taxi ranks, and alleged that those security companies carried out assassinations for their clients.
Cape Town lawyer Piet Malik was gunned down outside his children’s school in October 2018. The head of the Western Cape Detective Service said the hitmen were taxi industry operators from KZN. Violence monitor Mary de Haas said the security industry was a big problem. New security companies popped up all the time, and they had guns and then no longer functioned as security companies.
