NATIONAL NEWS - Pali Lehohla, Stats SA's Statistician-General, says the manifestation of crime is that it happens amongst people who know each other.

Lehohla says findings indicate crimes are perpetrated because of jealousy or anger against a family member or member of the public and money issues.
