Fairland SAPS Sergeant Michael Kgatla stated that they conduct these operations three times a week. “We check for wanted vehicles, validity of the vehicles, immigrants, where we check for their passports, and illegal firearms as well.”
Kgatla highlighted that collaborations like these are important for such operations. “If we work hand in hand with security companies, we can cover a lot of areas. With us joining hands with security, we can curb the crime.”
