The Western Cape Police Oversight and Community Safety Minister, Anroux Marais, has expressed deep concern following a shooting incident at the Mfuleni Taxi Rank near Khayelitsha on the Cape Flats.
Four people were killed and three others wounded in the incident this morning.
Marais says, “I condemn this senseless act and call on SAPS (South African Police Service) to pull out all the stops to ensure those responsible for this heinous act are brought to book. We cannot allow this status quo in our communities.”
