About SAPS Parkview

Did you know that Parkview Police Station precinct looks after over 196,000 people? That does not include the thousands and thousands who pass through its 17 precincts every day. The Station comprises a force of about 120 staff and and patrols a large area. As you can appreciate, it’s a tough task. Unless we are prepared to get involved and support them, the battle will not be won. That is our challenge.

 

Let’s work with the Police

SAPS PARKVIEW is there to serve. And the CRA security team holds regular meetings with the head of SAPS Parkview.

We believe that in the general scheme of things, CRA residents are fortunate to be within the Parkview police precinct. While crime levels remain a cause for concern, Parkview police have adopted a 'zero tolerance' approach and this is having an effect. Station Commander Senior Superintendent Moodley confirms that in our neighbourhood, year-on-year reported crime shows some increase. Of course we stress reported because if a crime (of any nature) goes unreported it is lost to the statistics. No-one benefits. In fact we probably lose out because resource allocation and deployment depends very much on actual events being reported and investigated.

It’s therefore really important to report any and all criminal activity to SAPS Parkview. 

Who do I call? SAPS Parkview 011 486 5000 or 10111.

In the case of urgent assistance always call 10111. That way your call will be passed to a vehicle that is out on patrol. Calling the station will mean that the station has to call the vehicle. A state-of-the-art SAPS call centre was recently opened and is staffed, we’re told, by the ranks of Captain and above, ensuring far better service.
