Minister of Police Nathi Mthethwa
will on Thursday release the annual crime statistics which will cover the
2012/2013 financial year.
Several requests have been made to
release the stats more regularly.
Western Cape MEC of Community Safety
Dan Plato said in its current format the stats are at best six months out of
date and at worst a year and a half too late.
Ministerial Spokesperson Greg
Wagner said MEC Plato has called for a more
regular release of the crime statistics. Tomorrow the National Police Minister
will release the annual crime statistics.
But MEC Plato said more regular
crime statistics will empower the communities to take the necessary preventative
action and measures to ensure their safety and safety of their
neighbourhood.
