JP Smith: Cape Town’s high-tech crime-fighting arsenal grows with drones, bait cars and boots on the ground

Cape Town’s safety chief, Alderman JP Smith, tells Alec Hogg how the city is deploying hundreds of new law enforcement officers, drones, cameras, and even bait cars to confront the surge of violent incidents on the N2 and R300. With pressure mounting on the national government to devolve policing powers, Smith warns that Cape Town is no longer waiting for Pretoria to act.
