Youth urged to help curb crime
Vukani
|July 10, 2025
Police and the Mfuleni Community Policing Forum (CPF) have called on young people in the Mfuleni policing precinct to get involved in efforts to reduce crime in their communities.
The call was made during a Youth Month closing event held at Happy Valley New Primary School on Monday, June 30. The event was part of a broader initiative by the police and their stakeholders to engage with the youth and promote community involvement in crime prevention.
Station commander Brigadier Tamsanqa Tito said the youth were both major contributors to and victims of crime.
"I am excited and joyous because we are closing the month of the youth. When you deal with youth, they are the most significant contributors to crime, and they are also the most victims of crime. Now we must put our heads together with all our stakeholders.
