Lesufi Vows Justice After Deadly Reiger Park Drive-By Shooting Leaves Six Dead

Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi has vowed that law enforcement will leave no stone unturned in tracking down those responsible for the deadly drive-by shooting in Reiger Park, Boksburg, that claimed six lives over the weekend.

Three others, including a young child, were wounded in the horrifying attack, which has sent shockwaves through the east of Johannesburg community.

Lesufi visited Reiger Park on Sunday after meeting with local police officials to discuss what is believed to be a gang-related incident that has rattled residents and heightened fears of escalating violence in the area.

Lesufi said authorities are working “around the clock” to find the perpetrators behind the brutal killings.

“And justice must be served. Because we can’t allow this to happen. So, to the leadership of the chairs, leadership of the community, councillors, together with our National Commissioner, thank you for coming to the community of Reiger Park. Die poppe sal dans,” Lesufi said.

National Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola confirmed that additional police resources have been deployed to hunt down the suspects, including two known gang members who remain on the run.

“We have a team, we will beef it up with the view to find the killers. I can’t say tomorrow they will be in or tonight they will be in but we are going to arrest them. It’s best not to say much because I might give a message and you go and tell them,” Masemola said.

Police continue to appeal to the public for any information that could lead to the arrest of those responsible.
