Extortionists demand 'politely' money from service provider

Extortionists in the City of Cape Town have written to one of the service providers "politely" asking for a protection fee. According to News24, Sanitech, which is working to service informal settlements with chemicals for toilets, was forced to pull out of Kosovo informal settlement in Philippi. Water and Sanitation MMC Dr Zahid Badroodien says they suspect this threat comes from the community in which the service provider operates.

Polite crime?

[@trustingnobody628]

It's not a "polite crime" at all. There is no such thing. This is a WARNING to the recipient that in case you fail to comply with the demand, you will visit your ancestors permanently. It's an indirect sign of danger.

Crime is a problem however l blame the Western Cape whom doesn’t do enough to save the collapse of our kids education in the Cape Flats and townships.. This lead to criminal activity.. Investigate why our kids receive education under extreme conditions.. Overcrowded classrooms, no budget for teachers post, teachers leaving the country for better opportunities.. No one is addressing this conundrum..
