The Western
Cape government has launched a petition to end
gang violence in the province with community members in Delft signing
the petition.
Provincial government says the
petition is aimed at securing support for interventions like deployment of the
army as a short term measure.
Democratic Leader in the Western
Cape Ivan Meyer said the long term solution to gangsterism lies in social
upliftment.
Meyer said the petition calls for
three things: call for the specialized
gang units,specialised units, calling for more police reservists to be
deployed, because police visibility is much needed.
