The upcoming strike by South African truck drivers on 30 April 2023 has raised concerns about the potential rise of lawlessness and criminal activities. In response, the National Joint Operational and Intelligence Structure (NATJOINTS) has implemented measures to mitigate any potential risks and ensure the safety of citizens.
The recent rearrest of Thabo Bester and Dr. Nandipha Magudumana in Tanzania has been a welcome development for the Police and Prisons Civil Rights Union (Popcru). Bester, who had previously escaped from the Mangaung Correctional Center in South Africa, was on the run for several months before being apprehended by South African Crime Intelligence officers.
