Examine how South Africa and the international community have implemented
strategies to tackle/combat organised crime.
Tackling Organised Crime in South Africa and the International Community
South Africa's Strategies
1. Legislation and Policy Frameworks:
o Prevention of Organised Crime Act (POCA), 1998: This is the primary
piece of legislation targeting organised crime, providing for measures to
combat money laundering, racketeering, and other criminal activities.
o National Development Plan (NDP) 2030: The NDP includes goals for
reducing crime and ensuring that citizens feel safe. It emphasizes
improving the criminal justice system, professionalizing the police force,
and addressing socio-economic factors that contribute to crime.
2. Law Enforcement Agencies:
o Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (Hawks): Formed in 2008, the
Hawks focus on serious organized crime, economic crime, corruption, and
other priority crimes.
o South African Police Service (SAPS): SAPS plays a crucial role in day-to-
day law enforcement, including efforts to combat organised crime.
3. Judicial Measures:
o Specialised Courts: Establishment of specialised courts to handle cases
related to organised crime more efficiently.
