Serial Rape Investigation training

Three groups of FCS Detectives in Gauteng recently completed a training course in the investigation of serial rape cases hosted by Matla A Bana. Expert serial rape investigator Brig. Labuschagne shared his expert knowledge with all the detectives. Currently there are more than 500 serial rape cases open in Gauteng alone. We would like to thank Mosaiek Church for the sponsorship of the venue and catering.

Update Parow Court

Yesterday we had a very special moment at Parow Court. We were busy painting the walls in the reception area, when two young girls who were waiting for the court offered to help us paint. We do not know what was done to these to beautiful girls, we only know that despite their pain, they were willing to help to make a difference. Let this be an example for all out there!
