Die tweede VLV-byeekoms, aangebied deur die Malmesbury-tak by Cafe Myrtledene, het die afgelope Woensdag (5 Februarie) plaasgevind waartydens Uys van der Westhuijzen, betrokke by landelike veiligheid op nasionale vlak by Agri SA en die voorsitter van landelike veiligheid in die Wes-Kaap, die kollig op veiligheid geskyn het. Hy het na die onderwerp as ongewild verwys, omdat mense neig om vingers te wys sodra iets gebeur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens hom sluit landelike veiligheid nie slegs plase in nie, maar ook dorpe in landelike omgewings. \u201cDit gaan nie hier oor ons nie \u2013 dit gaan oor ons nageslag. Ons is hier om iets te begin. Ons moet kyk na die werklikhede en wat verkeerd gegaan het en hoe ons dit gaan regmaak,\u201d meen hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy s\u00ea die werklikheid is dat te min polisievoertuie of voldoende sigbare polisi\u00ebring na gelang van noodsaaklikheid beskikbaar is. \u201cDaar is nie ekstra lede vir sigbare polisi\u00ebring op die platteland nie. Dit is wat dit is, maar dit help nie om \u2019n vinger te wys nie. Ons moet na onsself begin omsien, eienaarskap neem en betrokke raak,\u201d voeg Van der Westhuizen by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dwelmmisbruik, werkloosheid en misdaad is aan die toeneem en maatskappye is besig om familieplase oor te neem. \u201cHier is bendeoorlo\u00eb in Wesbank,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens hom is dit belangrik om te besef dat misdaad vir \u2019n rede gebeur. Van der Westhuijzen het verder uitgebrei oor faktore wat voornemende misdadigers in ag neem wanneer hulle by \u2019n perseel wil inkom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMisdadigers gaan vir seker by \u2019n huis wat die minste uitdaging bied, inbreek. Aanloklike teikens soos byvoorbeeld \u2019n huis waar maklike toegang verkry kan word of waar hulle weet baie geld is, moet in ag geneem word.\u201d Gewilde tye vir inbrekers is veral tussen 18:00 en vroegoggend wanneer inwoners ontspanne is, noem hy. \u201cTendense soos watter tye waar die meeste misdade voorkom en hoekom dit gebeur, is belangrik om met die plaaslike gemeenskappe gekommunikeer te word.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens hom is 97% misdadigers onder meer gewapen. Die gemiddelde ouderdom van \u2019n misdadiger is tussen 19 en 26 jaar oud. Sowat 30% van inbrekers sal moord pleeg, 17% van inbrekers is buitelanders en 90% van misdadigers is werkloos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van der Westhuijzen het verskeie faktore uitgelig oor hoe inwoners hulself kan beveilig en s\u00ea mense behoort daartoe in staat te wees om alarm te maak wanneer iets gebeur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit help nie jy het alles reg, maar hulle weet nie jy is binne jou huis in gevaar nie. As jy nie iets kan aktiveer nie, gaan jy nie reaksie kry nie. Indien jy wel \u2019n alarm het wat geaktiveer word, maak seker jy het \u2019n veilige plek in jou huis totdat hulp opdaag.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
