May has seen some nasty house robberies,
with the thieves persisting after being disturbed by coming back later on in
the early hours of the morning to finish off the job and get away what they
came for. It seems that its always
money, jewellery, mobile phones, laptops, cameras, and any expensive gadgets
that are in demand. Please do not think
as its winter, the perpetrators are not out there, they are …. waiting for any opportunity that comes
along. Make sure all alarms are
activated at all times where possible, and backup systems are in good working
order. Cases have been reported of
having been ‘saved’ by alarms going off and the thieves being disturbed and
Reaction Teams arriving to either apprehend or scare them off. Be very vigilant when going out to switch off
generators after a power cut, there could be a gang waiting for the open door
to gain entry to the house or premises. Please keep your animals inside at
night, there are cases of poisoning and this is a very stressful situation for
all concerned.
Please be aware that when travelling
between cities on a bus, not to have your valuables on your lap or in
view. A double decker bus travelling from
Bulawayo to Harare with a couple of incidents reported …. as the bus slows down
at a roundabout or give way stops, of the window being smashed and handbags
been snatched off the travelers lap. Was
this window chosen at random or was it marked by informers? …… These companies
that ferry passengers to and from destinations should have some form of
security available or at least a warning to travellers as they embark.
Areas that have been reported to have
had more than one robbery in the same day or week, which means there are gangs
out there working which are armed and not deterred by being disturbed are
Chisipite, Strathaven, Milton Park, Belvedere, Lincoln Green, Ridgeview. Be
warned …. Lets make this a safe country to visit and to live.
Please be advised that ANTIHIJACK do
not come out to the scene, either during the day
or night, but will assist where
possible.
Let’s ALL fight this crime together - stay ALERT and SAFE !
