\u201cWe want to reclaim the streets of Elsburg, street by street, building by building.\u201d<\/p>\n

These are the words of Prince Rulashe, the convenor of the Elsburg Community March Against Drugs and Crime, which took to the streets of Elsburg last Saturday.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Community and Elsburg CPF members came together to take a stand and show that they are tired of the crime and drugs in their suburb.<\/p>\n

The community has already held a number of meetings centred on the topics of crime and drugs and they held their first march in November, last year.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

This time the march was also in memory of Laticia Jansen, who was murdered after allegedly being raped a day before her 15th birthday in January.<\/p>\n
