Supply & Delivery of Bullet proof vests/body amours for Law Enforcement

Crime, using of weapons and drug abuse is becoming a problem in schools, that is why Bitou Public Safety Officials and other stakeholders performed an inspection at Plettenberg Bay Secondary School this week. 

Stakeholders present included the Plettenberg Bay Crime Prevention Association, Bitou Traffic Officers, Bitou Law Enforcement Officers, and ADT where they searched for drugs and weapons using a detection dog.

Bitou Law Enforcement Inspector, Sindelwa Mkitha, said more of these operations were planned to make schools around Bitou safer. 

Food items expired over four years ago, others with no expiry dates were some of the discoveries made by Bitou Public Safety Officials as they pounced on shops in the CBD on Tuesday.

This blitz follows similar operations on Friday and at the weekend in Witterdrift, Kranshoek and Crags. These operations saw an illegal tavern owner arrested and alcohol worth thousands of rands confiscated as they were trading without a legal permit.
