‘<strong>The</strong> police<br />
failed me’<br />
PHILANATHI RASMENI<br />
AMLUNGISI woman has criticised the police<br />
for allegedly failing to help her locate a man<br />
believed to have stolen her handbag earlier<br />
this month.<br />
Simnikiwe Vetezo, of Magxaki, said police had<br />
failed to help her after her handbag was snatched<br />
from her car while she was locking the gate to her<br />
home on <strong>March</strong> 7.<br />
Vetezo, a self-employed beautician, said she<br />
had been on her way to visit a client.<br />
<strong>The</strong> valuables in her bag included a makeup<br />
set, two cellphones, her ID and bank cards.<br />
She said a neighbour reported seeing a man<br />
with the items and told her his name.<br />
When she reported it to the police station,<br />
however, she said officers had told her they could<br />
not help her and that no vans were available.<br />
<strong>The</strong> next day, while speaking to two other men,<br />
she managed to find out where the suspect lived<br />
but once again, she was told that there was no<br />
van available.<br />
However, Vetezo said she was pleased with the<br />
excellent service offered by Nomzamo<br />
Neighbourhood Watch members Andile Zondi and<br />
Lulamile Silwana.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y visited the home of the suspect but he<br />
was nowhere to be found. <strong>The</strong>y then spoke to his<br />
friends, allegedly telling them to return the goods.<br />
“When I woke up the following morning, I found<br />
my handbag outside my house under the window<br />
with everything that was in it except for the<br />
phones.”<br />
Zondi and his team then assisted me to locate<br />
the people who had bought these phones and I<br />
got them back. <strong>The</strong> police failed me.”<br />
Police spokeswoman Captain Namhla Mdleleni<br />
said she had referred the complaint to the station<br />
management who took charge and is<br />
investigating the matter.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> policemen will be investigated and if they<br />
are found guilty, serious steps will be taken.<br />
“We urge community members to ask for the<br />
station commander when they are not<br />
satisfactorily assisted.”<br />
