\u2019n Beampte by die polisie se openbare orde-eenheid s\u00ea hy voel hy kan elke dag siek wees, sodat hy nie hoef werk toe te gaan nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die eenheid was onlangs in die nuus toe Ian Cameron, die voorsitter van die parlement\u00eare portefeuljekomitee oor polisie, \u2019n verrassingsbesoek aan die eenheid gebring het. N\u00e1 sy besoek het Cameron \u2019n verdoemende verslag gegee oor wat by die Faure-basis in Eersterivier, waar die eenheid gesetel is, aangaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Cameron is meer as 60% van die voertuie op die basis buite werking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWat ons gevind het, was \u2019n eenheid sonder die meeste van die hulpbronne,\u201d het Cameron ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van die ander goed wat Cameron gesien het, was dat slegs 29 van die 96 voertuie loop, 10 van die 14 pantservoertuie met waterkanonne staan, en dat 275 van die nuwe rekrute, wat in 2023 aangesluit het, slegs 60 stukke beskermende drag moet deel. Dit sluit kopskerms in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So erg gaan dit glo op die basis dat diewe in 2024 ingebreek en vuurwapens gesteel het. Met Cameron se besoek het beeste by die perseel ingeloop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die beampte, wat op voorwaarde van anonimiteit met TygerBurger gepraat het, s\u00ea hy wil graag h\u00ea die gemeenskap moet weet hoe dit regtig voel om vir die eenheid te werk. \u201cAan die begin was ek baie lief vir my werk. Dit was my passie, maar deesdae voel ek gedurig gedemoraliseer. Wat eens \u2019n gefokusde eenheid was, is nou nie meer nie. Ons word nie betaal vir oortyd nie en ander toelaes is ook weggevat. Om te dink ons, wat vir \u2019n spesialiseenheid werk, is slegter af as die ouens by die polisiekantoor,\u201d s\u00ea die beampte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy s\u00ea die moraal is baie laag. \u201cDie mense wat bo in beheer is, voel nie vir ons wat al die werk doen nie. Ek was altyd opgewonde om werk toe te gaan, maar nou wil ek elke dag siekverlof neem,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Intussen het die Wes-Kaapse polisiehoof, lt. gen. Thembisile Patekile, ges\u00ea dit is nie nodig om die weermag in Kaapstad te ontplooi nie, nadat onlangs vrygestelde misdaadstatistieke wys dat daar tussen Oktober en Desember 263 bendeverwante moorde gepleeg is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie bendes soek net status en ons wil hulle nie daardie status gee nie. Ons gaan net teen hulle veg en hulle moenie die mag van die staat uitdaag nie. Hulle is nie op die vlak waar jy die weermag moet inroep nie,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N\u00e1 Patekile se uitspraak het Cameron gevra vir \u2019n vergadering met hom en die nasionale polisiehoof.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
