The Western Cape African Christian Democratic Party leader, Ferlon Christians says, the increase in drug-related incidents, car and truck hijackings and the continual battle against gangsterism are all hallmarks that still have a long way to go in the fight against crime.

Christians was responding to the national crime statistics released yesterday.

In a statement issued, Christians says corruption within the police service should be addressed and that rotten apples should be disposed of.

Christians explained that it was frustrating that 85% of Western Cape police stations have been left under-staffed and under resourced during the period of those statistics.


He feels that sufficient staffing at police stations will drastically improve the crime battles facing the Western Cape.
