Police clamp down on gang violence

Cape Town police say their pro-active work in Hanover Park, since gang violence erupted in the area again at the end of last month, has resulted in 13 arrests. Spokesperson Elliot Sinyangana says three suspects are appearing in court on Thursday for the possession of unlicensed firearms. Another six people are being charged after being caught with the drug tik. Early on Thursday morning, four more young suspects were arrested. Sinyangana confirmed that the community is co-operating and giving the police useful information. At least seven people died within two weeks when gang violence flared up on the Cape Flats again recently.
