Western Cape Police Ombudsman Advocate Vusi Pikoli will today embark on a community visit in Hermanus to shed light on the mandate of the office and safety issues.

The office of the Ombudsman which has been in existence since January this year, was established by Premier Helen Zille following the Commission of Inquiry into policing in Khayelitsha.

Advocate Pikoli says this should be seen in the light of the need of communities to be involved in drawing up the policing needs and priorities of provinces which will then form part of the national policing policy.
