SEDIBENG.- The Vaal Marina police conducted a door-to- door and street intervention campaign in the Mamello Informal Settlement this week.

The campaign was aimed at educating the community about the danger of committing crime and how it affects one’s future. Police spokesperson, Constable Tshilidzi De Huis said that the following safety tips were shared with community to prevent crime:

▪   Abduction and kidnapping: Safety tips shared for safety and prevention of such crime because knowing safety measures can make all the difference to prevent adult and children from potentially being lured away by would-be abductors.

▪   Domestic Violence: Community was informed of Victim Friendly Room (VFR) at a police station provided for use by the victims, and where, when, and how to apply for a protection order.

“Responsible gambling awareness information brochures were distributed as well,” De Huis said.
