A plan to stop rampant murders, due to taxi violence and political killings, will be expected in the coming weeks, KwaZulu-Natal Premier Sihle Zikalala said on Wednesday.
"We have directed the MEC for Transport, Community Safety and Liaison [Bheki Ntuli] to present clear plans in the next few weeks for dealing with the rampant killings in the taxi industry, and the plan to augment the teams dealing with political killings, including the resuscitation of the Multi-Party Political Intervention Committee," Zikalala said.
The move to form a committee, initiated by the KZN government executive, comes after a series of violent taxi and politically-related killings.
There has also been a series of taxi-related killings, with three teachers caught in the crossfire of a shooting on Tuesday morning.
"The Provincial Executive Council calls on all citizens to rise in exposing those behind the latest killings and violent incidents in our province.
