Child abductions in the Western Cape

No police officer anywhere in the world would allow the payment of ransom money, Western Cape police commissioner Mzwandile Petros said on Wednesday at a media briefing on the death of three-year-old Viwe Mnembe. (from IOL)

"Globally, there's no police official who will allow anybody to pay ransom money to anybody.

"Because you know what will happen: you will be hijacked in the garage, and somebody's going to be saying, I want ten rand, and then it's easy money."
(It's good to see our top policeman shooting his mouth off like this...)

"It is becoming a normal thing in the Western Cape, which is unfortunate. Each and every weekend we will have child abducted."

"We need to investigate this thing further, why is this thing happening in the Western Cape." (errr R500?)
