What happened to that Mercedes Benz A-class donated to the SAPS by Karaglen?
Another resident asked what had happened to the Mercedes Benz A-Class which was donated to the Edenvale Police Station from Karaglen.
W/O Olckers said that “the vehicle was still in the service of the Edenvale SAPS but it had been removed from doing sector patrols in Edenvale”.
Edenvale resident, Mike, wanted to know how many vehicles there were in Edenvale and what sort of a budget the police have and what has been done in terms of getting more vehicles and manpower. “We have applied for more vehicles and more manpower. Edenvale is too big for six vehicles,” Lt Col Mailula said before being seated again. Her response to the question caused the audience to erupt into a flurry of questions.
-- Dowerglen extention 4 resident, Johnny, asked why the station has such a large turnaround of station commanders. “We were perfectly happy with the previous commander,” he said. In response to the question, Mr Andy Crawley said that he agreed that the matter needed to be taken up with Provincial Police Commissioner Lieutenant General Mzwandile Petros to create some sort of stability in Edenvale.
-- Heather Hart said that if Edenvale wanted a first class police station, the work should start at the front. “There is no sense of pride and respect. You are lucky to be greeted when entering the station. If you are not going to answer you phones then remove them,” she said. “We expect and deserve good service,” she added.
