We closed off with an interview with Patrick Solomons - Director of Molo Songololo. He was speaking to us whether the
latest crime statistics regarding children as victims of crimes is a true
reflection or not. According to the latest annual SAPS crime statistics for the
period of April 2011 to March 2012, 50 688 children were victims of crimes
ranging from murder, attempted murder, sexual offences, common assault to
assault with the intent to commit grievous bodily harm. A total of 793 children
were murdered, 758 survived a murder attempt, 25 862 were sexually
attacked, 12 645 were assaulted and 10 630 were grievously assaulted.
