Mogoditshane crime rate goes down

Mogoditshane Police Station Commander superintendent Russ Letsebe disclosed a significant crime reduction in his policing area since lockdown. In an interview with Mmegi, Letsebe welcomed the dramatic reduction in serious and violent crimes during the lockdown to curb the COVID-19 pandemic. 

"I do not think there is any other area that has benefited from the lockdown like Mogoditshane. Since Friday we have not recorded a single serious or violent crime that has been keeping the police on their toes in my policing area. Offences that we have been recording are those of people who have been violating the lockdown and COVID-19 preventative measures," he said.
