A total of 63 new police vehicles were handed over to police stations across the Northern Cape on Monday, 13 May. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These vehicles consist of 40 Toyota double cab bakkies and 23 Isuzu 4\u00d74 double cab bakkies, suitable for the working terrain of the province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lt Gen. Koliswa Otola, provincial commissioner, reminded police members to utilise the resources responsibly and efficiently, and continue to combat crime through decisive police action and robust community involvement in an effort to bolster operations Shanela and Vala Umgodi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She reiterated that the South African Police Service (SAPS) will continue to enhance and improve on reaction time of community complaints and visible policing with the consistent focus on keeping the province safe and secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The handing over of the vehicles took place at the police\u2019s K9 unit in Kimberley in the presence of district commissioners, provincial heads, and station commanders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Otola was accompanied by the deputy provincial commissioner for policing, Maj. Gen. Luntu Ngubelanga; the deputy provincial commissioner for corporate services, Maj. Gen. Thabo Mphuthi; and the acting deputy provincial commissioner for crime detection, Maj. Gen. Jacques Raymond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms.

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty) Ltd","foundingDate":"2025-01-01","vatID":"4100318916","taxID":"2000\/018234\/07","numberOfEmployees":{"@type":"QuantitativeValue","minValue":"51","maxValue":"200"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/#\/schema\/person\/e08d7630612634c4a5ced5db09b6608f","name":"Noordkaap Bulletin","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-ZA","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Noordkaap Bulletin"},"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/author\/noordkaapbulletin\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/45e3e96ecd3e4e31978984ffe2aae611.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":55632,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/new-vehicles-and-recruits-bolster-northern-cape-crime-fighting-efforts-20221212\/","url_meta":{"origin":47225,"position":0},"title":"New vehicles and recruits bolster Northern Cape crime fighting efforts","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"12 December 2022","format":false,"excerpt":"A total of 23 brand new police vehicles were handed over to station commanders from across the Northern Cape.","rel":"","context":"In "News"","block_context":{"text":"News","link":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/news\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/e0d58464929043948d8d549c845962fe.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/e0d58464929043948d8d549c845962fe.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/e0d58464929043948d8d549c845962fe.jpg?resize=525%2C300&ssl=1 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/e0d58464929043948d8d549c845962fe.jpg?resize=700%2C400&ssl=1 2x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/e0d58464929043948d8d549c845962fe.jpg?resize=1050%2C600&ssl=1 3x"},"classes":[]},{"id":55991,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/robbery-of-truck-with-diamond-bearing-gravel-foiled-by-nc-task-team-20221118\/","url_meta":{"origin":47225,"position":1},"title":"Truck robbery with diamond-bearing gravel foiled by Northern Cape task team","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"18 November 2022","format":false,"excerpt":"The robbery of a truck, believed to be transporting diamond-bearing gravel, was foiled by a multi-disciplinary operation, leading to the arrest of ten suspects.","rel":"","context":"In "News"","block_context":{"text":"News","link":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/news\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/0f2caa6c63034eae8e256bfa63377cd5.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/0f2caa6c63034eae8e256bfa63377cd5.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/0f2caa6c63034eae8e256bfa63377cd5.jpg?resize=525%2C300&ssl=1 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/0f2caa6c63034eae8e256bfa63377cd5.jpg?resize=700%2C400&ssl=1 2x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/0f2caa6c63034eae8e256bfa63377cd5.jpg?resize=1050%2C600&ssl=1 3x"},"classes":[]},{"id":80134,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/saps-members-in-northern-cape-shooting-for-gold-at-nationals\/","url_meta":{"origin":47225,"position":2},"title":"SAPS members in Northern Cape shooting for gold at nationals","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"27 March 2025","format":false,"excerpt":"Remarkable results were achieved by two members of the South African Police Service (SAPS) in the Northern Cape, who participated in the National Practical Pistol Shooting Championship.
