S.Africa: 2018 – 2019 – Murders & other crimes increase – Murder much higher..
[I found these stats. Murder is much higher than it was a few years ago when it was claimed to be in the range of 16,000 to 18,000. I have no idea how the COVID lockdowns have changed this type of crime. What I do know is that Internet fraud from fake shop websites went through the roof. I heard this from a Police detective. Jan]
