MOSSEL BAY NEWS - The police stations and community policing forums (CPFs) of the greater Mossel Bay area joined forces with other local authorities and neighbourhood watches this morning, 27 November, for the Garden Route District Police’s launch of 16 Days of Activism for No Violence Against Women and Children.
Officers from the Mossel Bay Police Station, KwaNonqaba, Da Gamaskop, Great Brak and their CPFs gathered with representatives of correctional services, local law enforcement, provincial traffic and neighbourhood watches at the Great Brak Police Station at 07:30 this morning.
The Garden Route District’s deputy police commissioner, Brigadier Belinda Pather, was also present.
After the police chaplain’s prayer for the greater Mossel Bay area, Captain Rosetta Bhana and Lieutenant Colonel Ashley Michaels, the station commander of the Mossel Bay Police Station and the operational commander of the campaign, explained the plans for the morning: the members would spend time in each policing precinct, Mossel Bay, Da Gamaskop, KwaNonqaba and Great Brak, handing out educational flyers and pamphlets of gender-based violence and talking to motorists and pedestrians about 16 Days of Activism.
