PETITION TO HAVE A MOBILE SATELLITE POLICE STATION SITUATED IN KLOPPER PARK ON THE ISLAND IN KRUIN STREET

 Every Police station has a territorial jurisdiction where it can register FIRs and complaints of the general public and exercise their functions basically investigation, inquiry, search, and arrests. Klopper Park jurisdiction falls under Bedfordview SAPS, which is approximately 9km away from Klopper Parks jurisdiction.  

REASONS WHY KLOPPER PARK NEEDS A SATELLITE POLICE STATION ·      

• The distance for Klopper Park residents to travel to Bedfordview Police Station is far. 
• There is huge time delay when it comes to Bedfordview SAPS responding to a call out in the area 
• Bedfordview SAPS do not have enough sector vehicles to respond to a call out. Currently, they only have two sector vehicles that covers a large area.
• Crime in the area has increased drastically, making the place unsafe.
• People are left vulnerable as the area has become a prime target for perpetrators to commit crime
• Children are exposed a lot of dangerous elements such as drugs, violence, crime.  

BENEFITS OF HAVING A MOBILE SATELLITE POLICE STATION ·      

• The community of Klopper Park will feel a bit safer as it will boost crime-fighting initiatives in the area.
• It will allow the ability to seamlessly receive and share real-time data and operational information to improve decision making and operational outcomes.

REQUIREMENTS 

We require the satellite police station to operate 24 hours and it will mainly serve Klopper Park, Harmelia and Elandsfontein's residents.
