Gender Based Violence and Femicide March 

"Crime eventually will be the end of us all"

The Maquassi Hills, women today took to the Street to demand justice for the victims of GBV-F a scourge that slowly sleeps away our moral fibre as society, in the most recent weeks our town has experienced the brutal assassination of women by criminal elements and to the dismay of our people the perpetrators galavant our streets without any hope of restorative justice for the victims and mourning families, our society is so obnoxious to the failures of both the courts and the police to harmonize the situation and bring the perpetrators to book, the community had to rise in defense of our women and deposit a memorandum of demands to the local SAPS office to request that the due diligence takes its course in the recent misgivings that this thuggery characters has invoked in our women.

The demands gave the office 7 calendar days to effect a resound response to the people's cry, we are hoping for a positive outcome as our society is slowly off ramping from its own settings, of a peaceful and harmonica society wherein everyone is related to somebody...

We thank these individuals who saw fit to join this noble course...

Till we meet again on the seventh day!

Yours in the fight against criminality
