KZN government recalls community crime-fighting vehicles over misuse
September 16, 2025
|The Mercury
Premier Thamsanqa Ntuli has defended his government's decision to recall vehicles that were provided to assist community safety structures in crime-fighting initiatives.
Ntuli defended the decision, saying it was taken after an assessment that revealed that some of the vehicles were abused and being used for personal errands rather than to assist in crime-fighting. Ntuli raised the issue of maintenance and fuel, which he said was becoming a problem.
He said his government was still committed to crime-fighting and creating a safe environment for all the people in the province, and the government was in the process of donating some of the vehicles to safety structures and to police to beef up their campaign against gender-based violence.
