If you have an incident of a criminal nature, please report it to your local SAPS. We are aware that procedures may take time, but the SAPS Station Commanders are aware of community concerns when reporting crimes and have been addressing them with their staff. I am sure that we will all see an improvement in the various charge offices as SAPS officials take heed of our concerns. Please note that KSS cannot open a case for you – YOU need to report and open your own cases with SAPS.
