Crime in SA | State of policing and crime intelligence

JOHANNESBURG - There’s been concern about crime intelligence being caught napping when it comes to security risks.

He said this would increase crime intelligence capability within the JMPD.

Morero withdrew the proposal and apologised after widespread outrage.

We discuss this idea with Gareth Newham from the Institute for Security Studies.
