120 rapes are reported in South Africa every day.

5 people have been brutally raped in the hour that Members of Parliament have spent arguing, instead of discussing solutions to violent crime. #SONA #SONA2023 #SONA23
Action Society has a long list of practical solutions to the crime situation in South Africa.

1/8: Do a skills audit in the SAPS to determine the merit of appointments and sack members not appointed on merit.

#SONA #SONA2023 #SONA23
2/8: Polygraph all members – starting with leadership – to determine whether they have been involved in any corrupt activities; if so, sack them.

#SONA #SONA2023 #SONA23
3/8: Restore crime intelligence capabilities.

#SONA #SONA2023 #SONA23
4/8: Reinstate specialised units that can effectively deal with serious violent crime without living in the community where they work.

#SONA #SONA2023 #SONA23
5/8: Crime kingpins, including those with state connections, must be targeted and taken out of operation.

#SONA #SONA2023 #SONA23
6/8: Restore reservist capabilities, specifically to support specialised units. It is of utmost importance that these reservists do not come from the said communities for intimidation to be limited.

#SONA #SONA2023 #SONA23
7/8: Pay police members properly.

#SONA #SONA2023 #SONA23
8/8: Implement police devolution in the Western Cape as a proof of concept.
