Business joins crime fight at Swakop

SWAKOPMUND businessman Quinton Liebenberg and the Erongo Police are now working together to make Swakopmund’s popular beach areas safer during the busy December holiday.

Liebenberg said the plan is to set up surveillance cameras from the Swakopmund Jetty, along the Promenade to the Mole Beach in December to monitor movements there throughout the day. “Be sure that Big Brother will keep an eye on things to help deter crime and keep our holidaymakers safe,” said Liebenberg.The regional Police Chief, Deputy Commissioner Festus Shilongo, said the Swakopmund Crime Stoppers – a volunteer youth group under the guidance of the local Police Public Relations Committee – will also be more visible at the Mole “for the safety of our visitors”.”We appreciate Mr Liebenberg’s assistance in making our holiday resort safer, and we encourage other businesses to follow his good example,” said Shilongo.Liebenberg also donated a laptop computer to Shilongo to help him in his work of maintaining law and order at the coast.”Be sure that Big Brother will keep an eye on things to help deter crime and keep our holidaymakers safe,” said Liebenberg.The regional Police Chief, Deputy Commissioner Festus Shilongo, said the Swakopmund Crime Stoppers – a volunteer youth group under the guidance of the local Police Public Relations Committee – will also be more visible at the Mole “for the safety of our visitors”.”We appreciate Mr Liebenberg’s assistance in making our holiday resort safer, and we encourage other businesses to follow his good example,” said Shilongo.Liebenberg also donated a laptop computer to Shilongo to help him in his work of maintaining law and order at the coast.
