Police have urged northern KwaZulu-Natal communities to refrain from violence as plans are in place to address the theft and smuggling of vehicles to Mozambique.
Provincial police commissioner Lt-Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi condemned the burning of vehicles.
Mkhwanazi called on residents in the Umkhanyakude district to respect the rule of law and acknowledge the interventions which police management have put in place to curb vehicle theft in the area. “The station is at a level of a colonel. We have gone further than that and deployed extra members to the area. The Emanguzi police station has been built and will be handed over to the police service by the department of public works and infrastructure soon. In December 2022 we appointed a new district commissioner, Maj-Gen Mduduzi Shezi, who will take up his post on February 1.”
“Community members are urged not to incriminate themselves by taking the law into their own hands and embarking on violent action, including damaging property.”
