'I want police action' - Gauteng premier visits Winterveld school targeted by armed robbers
16 January 2020
Gauteng Premier David Makhura is demanding police action after two schools - Philemon Montsho Primary and St Josephs Kulani Primary in Winterveld – were broken into over the festive season.
Visiting Philemon Montsho Primary on Thursday along with Gauteng police commissioner Lieutenant General Elias Mawela, Makhura said: "I want results about the arrests of those who are perpetrators of this. I also want results about visibility of police. I want police action.
"The community here has complained too many times that criminals are on a holiday. They are on a rampage and are not feeling the might of the law."
Makhura added that the principal of Philemon Montsho Primary was heartbroken by the incident.
