Police boost safety with hotspot focus
Plainsman
|July 09, 2025
Mitchell's Plain police launched its crime hotspot policing initiative in Tafelsig on Wednesday, July 2.
Senior provincial police officers, including provincial visible policing head, Brigadier Zukiswa Matumbu, Mitchell's Plain police chief, Brigadier Brian Muller, and residents gathered outside the Oosterzicht Church hall for the launch.
They were joined by representatives from the Mitchell's Plain Community Police Forum, Community in Blue, Tafelsig Neighbourhood Watch members and City officials.
Both Brigadiers appealed to the community to reclaim their streets. Addressing the community, Brigadier Matumbu appealed to all men to stop watching women lead the fight against crime.
Most neighbourhood watch members on the frontline are often women, she said. "Where are the men, aphi Amadoda," she added.
Tafelsig is the biggest of all the Mitchell's Plain police station sectors.
