In a major boost for communities battered by gang violence and crime, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced in his State of the Nation Address that he's deploying the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) to support police in Gauteng and the Western Cape. This targets gangsterism in Cape Town's hotspots and illegal mining syndicates terrorizing areas in Gauteng. Residents in gang-infested neighborhoods have welcomed the move, saying police are overwhelmed and urgent help is needed to reclaim streets and restore safety. Jon Gericke spoke to the Cape Crime Crisis Coalition chairperson, Dr. Llewellyn MacMaster.
