Early this morning, Operation Restore executed a successful roadblock on the N7 near Klawer, arresting two suspects who were found in possession of illegal precious stones, uncut diamonds, and rubies. The strategic deployment of Operation Restore members along entry and exit routes of the province proved to be effective in apprehending the suspects.
The Western Cape Education Department (WCED) has recently announced its plans to allocate over R76 million towards improving security measures in all schools across the province in the 2023/24 financial year budget. This budget, which includes significant infrastructure investment, teacher training programmes, and support plans amounting to R29.55 billion, is a major step towards creating a safer learning environment for students.
