Police Minister Bheki Cele has highlighted the importance of the police role in protecting women and children. He is in Mthatha, Eastern Cape, where he is conducting site visits as part of ensuring a safer festive season.

He has raised concern that the abuse, sexual assault and rape of women is rife in the OR Tambo region, with Lusikisiki recording more of those cases. He has called on police officers to do everything in their power to protect women and children.

“Men must understand that women are not there for their pleasures. Women are fully human beings that they have the space and they have the space granted by God that they live as they wish. So it’s important that when you see that a woman is under threat, drop as an officer every and anything and protect those women and those children.

So that’s the main call because the other stuff at this juncture is that the women and children are abused.
