WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

S.Africa: President Mbeki says Crime is going down…

[He’s said this before… He always paints a far rosier picture than it should be. I wonder how many people inside South Africa will believe this. I am skeptical. Jan] Cape Town – President Thabo Mbeki says that in the past financial year, the rates of such crimes as murder, theft of motor vehicles and motor cycles, common robbery, cash-in-transit heists and bank robbery have declined. In his State of the Nation speech at the opening of parliament on Friday, Mbeki said: “The trend in the past financial year which has seen the rate of such crimes as murder decline by 8%, theft of motor vehicles and motor cycles by 5.4%, common robbery by 5.9%, cash-in-transit heists by 48.7% and bank robberies by 57.5% should continue and in fact improve in subsequent years. “Yes, there are crimes such as aggravated robbery and child abuse, which show an increase. Yes, the level of crime, especially violent incidents, remains unacceptable. But we are confident of meeting our target to reduce the rate of contact crimes by 7% to 10% a year. “As planned, the security agencies have set up task teams to identify, apprehend and convict the gang leaders of organised crime and other perpetrators of serious crimes. Of those involved in organised crime, 67 out of 96 identified have been arrested. The same deserved fate has befallen 40 out of 42 identified for commercial crimes involving cases above five million rand and other projects valued at 50 million rand. 61 of the 62 involved in violent crime including cash-in-transit and other robberies as well as serial murder and serial rape have been arrested.” Mbeki said: “In brief, 168 of the top 200 identified have been apprehended.” Mbeki said the aim was to expand the number of police areas “for focused multi-disciplinary interventions from 63 to 169”. He noted that an additional allocation of R2.3bn had been announced last October to improve the salaries of members of the police service. He said on Friday: “I am pleased to indicate that more resources will be added to what has already been allocated. Further, to improve our capacity to fight crime, an additional 8 000 members and 3 000 support staff have been recruited into the service since May 2004.” Source: News24.Com |
