Col Mduduzi Khuzwayo, the station commander of the Primrose Police Station, has been fielding complaints from disgruntled community members.<\/p>\n

The main complaint from many residents is that they are sent from one person to the next when they try to open a case.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cResidents have reported that when reporting a crime at the Primrose Police Station\u2019s charge office, they have been given the sector cellphone numbers instead of being able to open a case,\u201d explained Sgt Styles Maome, communications officer for the Primrose police.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is the responsibility of the officers on duty to help even if that means finding or phoning a third party.\u201d<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Members of the community are encouraged to take the name of the officer helping them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will help when reporting any problems community members may have when reporting a crime,\u201d Maome added.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to serve the community not to frustrate them.\u201d<\/p>\n
