EAST LONDON – Women in the SAPS are faced with different issues and as part of empowering them the seminar allowed for commissions in a form of groups to detect, prevent and combat these issues.

During the commissions different types of abuse that are affecting women were identified which include sexual, emotional, physical and financially abuse.

The ideas raised during the commissions were presented by the different groups and were acknowledged by the Provincial Commissioner, Lieutenant General Liziwe Ntshinga, “I applaud the level of work done during the commissions, these commissions are of importance and all that has been said here is a true reflection of what is happening in our homes and in our communities,” she said.

She further advised that women need to come up with resolutions for all the issues that were raised in the commissions so as to find ways to rise above the obstacles imposed on women.
