I would like to express my gratitude to the members of the SAPS for their immediate response once I reported valuable items stolen on Sunday, October 25.

My items may have not been recovered as yet, but the manner in which the police and the investigating team dealt with the matter impressed me.

They made an effort to return to my home and check on my family and whether any new discoveries have been made, which could assist with the case.

With the festive season approaching fast, police are on top of their game and are well prepared to fight crime and protect citizens.
