The Western Cape Government says it will increase the presence of Law Enforcement officers in Hanover Park following a surge of gang-related shootings.

The officers belong to LEAP, a programme funded and run in conjunction with the City of Cape Town.

They will work alongside police to stabilise the area.

Provincial MEC for Community Safety, Anroux Marais says gangs should no longer control the people of Hanover Park….

We cannot allow gang groupings to dictate the lives of law-abiding residents in Hanover Park.

We are responding by strengthening the enforcement presence on the ground – Anroux Marais
