Speaker 1: Seven to early Breakfast with Africa Milani live.
Speaker 2: Streaming countrywide on Prime Media plus DearS TV channel eight five.
Speaker 3: Six ninety two point seven.
Speaker 1: And one of six at them Our twelve minutes night
Speaker 1: is past five o'clock. As indicated earlier, thirty five year
Speaker 1: old man has been arrested in Cape Town in connection
Speaker 1: with the brutal murder of seven people in Google are
Speaker 1: two over this past weekend. The suspect was appreended yesterday
Speaker 1: evening and has currently been processed as he awaits his
Speaker 1: court appearance at the Athlones Magistrate's Court. My understanding is
Speaker 1: that the police are searching for a second suspect. Jenny
Speaker 1: on the line is Domisani Kuebet. Domisani is with the
Speaker 1: Younger Community Policing Forum. Domisani. Very good morning and welcome
Speaker 1: to the show.
Speaker 3: Good morning. How are you to do.
Speaker 1: I'm very well. I'm very well. Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: I hope you are well too. It's very distressing what
Speaker 1: is happening in Google are two primarily, but also some
Speaker 1: deaths reported in younger in Philippi and such areas. What
Speaker 1: do you understand to be happening right now? What is
Speaker 1: the reason for all this death.
Speaker 3: A thank you very much for the time. Firstly, we
Speaker 3: can say all is stend of maders I will have
Speaker 3: if you are alone the man is happening. It might be
Speaker 3: the issue of the people are knowing it's hard and
Speaker 3: they've got their own grashes, so they do relativity to
Speaker 3: one another. For example, in this case of Younger that
Speaker 3: double make better pendent Sunday. If you may just observe
Speaker 3: and listen to the community, find that one of the
Speaker 3: fifteens is from cooglut sight, which means it might be
Speaker 3: something that's related to other meaders. One us from crossroads.
Speaker 3: So it says the similar cases of retaliation that seems
Speaker 3: to be happening within our areas.
Speaker 2: Now are these people involved in extortionism that obviously is
Speaker 2: causing quite a lot of distress in the communities at
Speaker 2: the moment?
Speaker 3: What there is a criminal element being done by them
Speaker 3: that we can never run away from it because the
Speaker 3: manu the happening. It tells there is an alarm in
Speaker 3: terms of criminal activity is done by them. And as yourself,
Speaker 3: why would a person from who would say look side
Speaker 3: come and sleep in Younger if there is no primal
Speaker 3: activities There might be such in cases of chromo civity,
Speaker 3: so they might be knowing one or another on the road.
Speaker 1: As indicated earlier, thirty five year old man has been
Speaker 1: arrested in Cape Town by the police services and they
Speaker 1: are now on the search for a second suspect. I
Speaker 1: imagine these are news that you welcome as the community
Speaker 1: policing for them.
Speaker 3: Yes, actually, indeed we do upload on that turn, and
Speaker 3: we are saying in order for us in STAPs to
Speaker 3: be in a good working relationship, such things must be done. Secondly,
Speaker 3: we also appealing to Climate Intelligence and crimeate Dejection inside
Speaker 3: to work together to ensure that whenever someone god of
Speaker 3: information came to add a combine that's crime detections, so
Speaker 3: they can work together. If for now it can. If
Speaker 3: they can work together, believe me, we'll be able to
Speaker 3: say that those padress get arrested and Addacus can be
Speaker 3: prevented before they happened.
Speaker 1: Are you saying this because there is evidence that they're
Speaker 1: not working together.
Speaker 3: Altually for now? For now, you can see that between
Speaker 3: crime intelligence and crimate there's no good working relationship in
Speaker 3: between the lines. That's what needs to be instilled between
Speaker 3: those two components that they can work together For example,
Speaker 3: if I might be honest with you, a person was
Speaker 3: in charge of clime teeniten in these provinces, not ye
Speaker 3: and keep down it in territory in Tritoria, how can
Speaker 3: that person be able to see what must be done
Speaker 3: by the crime detection side if the president is in Tritory,
Speaker 3: so we need them to work together.
Speaker 1: Yes, certainly a question for the provincial Commissioner of Police
Speaker 1: here and the West in Cape I suppose Tomisani. The
Speaker 1: police are asking for community members to obviously offer up
Speaker 1: any information which might help with the investigation. Are you
Speaker 1: finding that the community is willingly offering information or are
Speaker 1: they still a little bit cautious in sharing information with
Speaker 1: the SAPs A cholage.
Speaker 3: It is that confidence of working together the community and
Speaker 3: they live with some ways of giving the information to
Speaker 3: the community, as we always educate them in our continuity
Speaker 3: in doing disus that you don't have to share even
Speaker 3: your name when you report such incident, or if you
Speaker 3: can't say it public, just speak to the person that
Speaker 3: you are sure that won't be any leaks. In terms
Speaker 3: of that given that drug does happen to us, especially
Speaker 3: in the Apersepence, it's there have been some cases and
Speaker 3: conflictions that we have been given and every that through
Speaker 3: the workation between police and the community, there's been those convictions.
Speaker 3: Tell us it's working good. We need to encourage them
Speaker 3: not to stop giving the information up all.
Speaker 1: Right, the seven who were killed in Google are two.
Speaker 1: According to some reports I have from people living in
Speaker 1: Coogole too, only one of them were involved in extortionism.
Speaker 1: The rest of the friends were gathering, they all used
Speaker 1: to go to high school together into was a small reunion.
Speaker 3: We do know that.
Speaker 1: I think it was three individuals were spared because they
Speaker 1: were asleep in the bedroom where the shootings happened. So
Speaker 1: so the reality is there often is a case where
Speaker 1: one person is being hunted, but because that person is
Speaker 1: sitting with other people, the rest of the people become
Speaker 1: victims as well. How do we stop this? Domisani? How
Speaker 1: what do you think needs to happen to stop the
Speaker 1: the levels of killing and violence in Google? Two, in Younger,
Speaker 1: in samramashall in Philippi and such.
Speaker 3: One thing that we need to do for now special
Speaker 3: way to work with community and give commitants and assurance
Speaker 3: of their safety. So currently, if I may recall last
Speaker 3: year in fifteenth of May twenty twenty four, the ten
Speaker 3: Boys bring Police Minister gave the current Pressal Commission a
Speaker 3: directive that at least for two or three months he
Speaker 3: mustive boy and I you dirty in this community so
Speaker 3: that they can't be stability. And we had sometimes requested
Speaker 3: them to have just an area look down. For example,
Speaker 3: if they can just do a lockdown in brand Farm
Speaker 3: for one two days and we'll give an alarm indication
Speaker 3: to the pader that there steps up serves on the road.
Speaker 3: So we're just also appealing to the current Address Commission
Speaker 3: just a month a man just to have thirty and
Speaker 3: and are you in this press of hours, then things
Speaker 3: will be stabilized.
Speaker 1: All right, We'll live there. Do miss anything very much
Speaker 1: to do Mission Quobe, member of the Younger Community Policing Forum.
Speaker 1: It was not the strongest line, but I think an
Speaker 1: important conversation. Nonetheless, given the reported incidents of murder, particularly
Speaker 1: in Google too, I do hope that if you are
Speaker 1: a resident of the community and have any information that
Speaker 1: you can share with the SAPs, that you will reach
Speaker 1: out and share that information so that investigation can proceed
Speaker 1: with some speed. Thank you very much once again to
Speaker 1: do MISSA ani Quibe
