VOICED: Anti-crime patrols sure up South African streets

In Alexandra, a group of 50 volunteers patrols the streets to maintain safety, as police presence is limited in certain areas. They intervene in crimes, such as attempted car thefts, and have the authority to check weapon licenses. Despite their efforts, violence remains a significant issue, with 93 murders reported last year. Volunteers have also faced attacks, yet they persist in their mission. During the World Cup, the district is unlikely to benefit from increased security, as tourists avoid the area, leaving volunteers to manage potential disturbances.
