The Northern Cape Deputy Provincial Commissioner for Policing, Major General Luntu Ngubelanga, handed over six new vehicles to advance the policing of illicit mining activities in the province. Ngubelanga said this follows the official opening of the 24-hour National Joint Operational and Intelligence Structure (NatJOINTS) Coordination Centre (NCC) at the SAPS Tshwane Academy in Pretoria on 24 May 2024.

“During the ceremony, the Minister of Police, General Bheki Cele, together with the National Commissioner of the Police, General Fannie Masemola, handed over vehicles to various specialised operations units.

“The vehicles were handed over to enable members to swiftly respond to and address illicit mining and related matters in the mining hotspot areas of the Frances Baard and Namakwa Districts,” he said.
