There were 2,000 kidnappings reported in SA between July and September.

He said liquor and domestic violence were found to have been involved in most rape cases, and Lusikisiki and Inanda remained the areas where most rapes were reported.

“With almost 10,000 people brutalised and sexually violated in just three months, this is not good. Often it is done by people the victims know and trust, and happens in their own homes.”as police had managed to keep all police stations stocked with rape kits, and gender-based violence desks were being rolled out. So far 134 were in operation and the goal was to have one at every station.

He said between July and September there were 2,000 kidnappings reported in the country, most of them linked to hijacking, robbery or rape cases. “Out of a sample of 658 cases, 52 were ransom-related. Most happened in Gauteng and seven involved human trafficking,” Cele said. “The crime picture is not ideal, but these figures show things are getting better in areas where crime was the highest. We responded to that and deployed our people to where they are needed most.”“We will continue to do more, and we must. More will be done to make South Africans safe.”
