Series of farm attacks and farm murders in South Africa – ‘Step up your security’ via SATodayNews
“We are convinced that these figures would be much higher if it weren’t for the fact that more and more farmers began to prioritise their safety. Unfortunately, we have reached a point where it no longer helps to pressure the government to prioritise crime. We are now at a place where citizens must get involved in their local security structures such as neighbourhood watches, whether rural or urban,” says Jacques Broodryk, spokesperson for Community Safety at AfriForum.
“In the areas where farmers are organised well when it comes to communication networks, response teams and preventive actions such as patrols, in general, there is a noticeable decline in crime,” concludes Broodryk.
