Petition to keep Bedfordview residents safe

As crime soars, the government has cut funding to the police by a staggering R5 850 139 billion! Sign this petition for an urgent investigation into the increase in crime and the lack of sector police officers and vehicles.

The defunding of the police by a staggering R5 850 139 billion has compromised their ability to combat crime in Bedfordview.

Violent crime is skyrocketing across Bedfordview.

Attempted murder is up by 25%, robbery with aggravated circumstances is up by 18% and robbery at non-residential premises is up by 25%.

Bedfordview also appears twice in the top 30 crimes across the country, with truck jacking rated 9th and robbery at non-residential premises rated 25th.

Enough is Enough, it is time that ALL of Bedfordview unites!

Send a strong and clear message to Parliament and the Minister of Police that we, the residents of Bedfordview, will not tolerate the defunding of the police and the subsequent horrific increase in crime.

The DA is calling on the Portfolio Committee to urgently investigate the increase in crimes and the lack of sector police officers and vehicles.
