Drakenstein Municipality deny illegal firearms possesion claims
Cape Times
|June 17, 2025
THE DA-led Drakenstein Municipality has dismissed as misinformation claims that it was illegally in possession of 64 firearms in violation of the Firearms Control Act.
The GOOD Party had sounded the alarm that the municipality had allegedly never applied for recognition as an official institution after the Firearms Control Act came into force on 1 July 2004.
GOOD councillor Keagen Gertse said the municipality was in breach of Schedule 1 of the Act, which “required non-recognised institutions to surrender such firearms to SAPS”.
“Drakenstein is not authorised to own, store, or use firearms. Yet, it continues to do all three, with full knowledge of the law and in blatant defiance of it. This revelation raises serious concerns about the safety of residents and the credibility of the DA’s governance. How can the same party summon SAPS to Parliament over gun crime when its own municipality is hoarding illegal weapons and potentially using them for training or operational purposes?
