Gauteng's crime statistics for 1 October to 31 December 2022 alsoGauteng police commissioner, Lieutenant General Elias Mawela, called on the province's residents to find"better ways" of resolving misunderstandings and conflict when he released the crime statistics for the period 1 October to 31 December 2022.
"People beat each other up. Murder and attempted murder cases come from people who beat each other half dead, and some ultimately die. This is because we don't have better ways of resolving our misunderstandings and conflicts. Therefore, I am calling on Gauteng residents to resolve conflict," he added.
The murder weapons included firearms, knives and other sharp instruments, stones, rocks, bricks and blunt objects.Difficult as it was, our presence on the ground helped us prevent crime before it could be committed and disrupt many planned and opportunistic criminal actions. What we encountered through our operations, especially night operations, is that, had we not been on the ground, the crime situation would have been worse."That is sad.
"We need to be honest with each other and talk about GBV . Women should refrain from repeatedly forgiving their perpetrators, thinking they will change.
