Descripción

This book explores core issues relating to identified serious crimes and how the police deal with them. The book is useful and informative literature, especially for both undergraduate and postgraduate students studying criminal law, criminology, criminal justice, and research. The book is also useful for criminal justice practitioners serving in law enforcement, corrections, probation, psychologists, and behavioural scientist. Crime affects all citizens regardless of our social status, race, sex, class, or creed. There is no such thing as a victimless crime. All crimes have their own victim. The police must be equipped enough to be one step ahead of criminal elements in our society. To make our lives safe, community safety remains the constitutional mandate of the police. A good understanding of what causes violence is well articulated in this book. It raises a provocative debate about whether or not South Africa can be regarded as a violent society.
