EWN reports that authorities have expressed concern by the increase in attacks on commuters in Cape Town.
Over the last few months, there have been a spate of robberies on Golden Arrow buses, with vehicles have been torched and travellers injured by stabbings and fires. In addition, passengers and drivers of Uber and other e-hailing services have been targeted by criminals in attacks that have been fatal. Metrorail's Riana Scott said commuters and members of the public should continue reporting crime because the information led to the identification of trends and hot spots. "We've increasingly seen commuters being targeted by criminals. We've even seen Uber, minibus taxis and buses being robbed. This is why the collaboration between the various law enforcement agencies have turned out to be absolutely essential," Scott noted
