The City of Cape
Town says since the introduction of Operation
Punch there has been an increase in illegal firearms seized.
Mayoral Committee Member for Safety
and Security JP Smith said since mid January 17 firearms were seized with 22
arrests of illegal firearms and ammunition.
Smith said this past week alone five
illegal firearms were confiscated. Every
firearm that is removed from the community is several less shootings and this
is one way from the Metro Police’s side we can reduce the violence, while SAPS
builds strong cases against these criminals.
“Operation Punch will continue
because it is producing results and trying to make our communities safer” Smith
added.
