“The station has the Community Service Centre (CSC), a first point of contact between SAPS and the public, operating 24 hours a day. Another feature is the Victim Friendly Facility (VFF), providing a safe, private and supportive environment for victims of crime, particularly those affected by gender-based violence.”

The VFF operates 24 hours a day, and all victims are encouraged to report incidents without delay. Furthermore, the station offers liquor-related services, administering compliance through the Designated Liquor Officer (DLO) under the SAPS Firearms, Liquor and Second-Hand Goods (FLASH) environment.

The Detective Branch investigates reported crimes, gathers and analyses evidence, interviews victims, witnesses and suspects, and prepares criminal cases for prosecution. Detectives operate during office hours but remain available whenever operational demands are required.
