Eskom has lost control of its power stations to criminal elements and “rent-seekers”, who engage in purposeful malfunction and sabotage to earn higher maintenance and other fees from the utility. Drain plugs removed from motor housings, cables cut, theft of coal and diesel, death threats against station managers, are all examples from a long list of cases which are awaiting police investigation.
Moreover, law enforcement is doing little to control the crime. There have been no convictions.

“Suspects bump your vehicle at the back and when you stop to check, they hijack you.”
Mculu says that several cases where suspects used this trick to hijack vehicles, have been reported at the Silverton Police Station in the previous years during the festive season.
“Sometimes the criminals will use two or three private cars and block a victim on the road, one blocks the victim from the back and the other in front, and they hijack the car. They are usually about four or five criminals involved in this kind of crime.”
Mculu urges motorists to constantly check for any cars following them.
“Residents must also look out for remote jamming, particularly when they visit shopping malls.
