Security Cluster Action Plan To Curb Mafia State

The DA demands a joint Security Cluster plan by 31 October to fix the justice system.

Corruption and inefficiency let criminals act with impunity.

Crime and lawlessness block growth and jobs.

The rot in the South African Police Service currently on national display is a symptom of the collapse of our entire criminal justice system. South Africans face unprecedented levels of crime on a daily basis, and our criminal justice system is clearly not fully up to the task of investigating, prosecuting and punishing crime.

The DA reiterates our call for the Ministers of Justice, Correctional Services, Police, and State Security account for their departments' joint failures in curbing the rise of impunity and present a combined plan to save the South African criminal justice system.

The reasons for the destruction of criminal justice and the rule of law in South Africa are complex and go back decades but its disastrous effects are simple, and are experienced throughout the country.

Many crimes and their perpetrators are not investigated due to infighting and corruption in the SAPS. As a result, our National Prosecuting Authority is struggling to put criminals behind bars efficiently. Our courts are so overburdened that cases take years to conclude.

When convictions are secured, criminals are sent to overcrowded facilities where lawlessness reigns supreme. These same criminals are then released back into society, often too early, without being adequately (or at all) reformed. So the downward spiral continues.

It is therefore of crucial importance that the ministers in the security cluster act decisively to put a stop to this vicious destructive cycle that strangles our communities. The effects of crime and violence are felt especially in rural communities and low-income areas throughout our cities.

We cannot grow the economy and create jobs while criminality cripples our towns and cities. The DA believes that solving the crisis of the South African criminal justice system is integral to creating a better life for all citizens.

It's time for the responsible ministers to take responsibility and present a plan by 31 October 2025 to save South Africa and protect those who live in it. The DA will not relent in our pressure on the executive to do its job and put the safety of South Africans first.
