Twenty gang members were stopped by police in a car convoy, and when they did, gunfire broke out. Two suspects were killed and eleven others were arrested in Tulisa Park in Germiston. The police discovered eight handguns and two AK-47s.
Many people are cheering this incident, as they do whenever police successfully execute criminals. These criminals are exceptionally clever; they are the ones who frequently make fun of ordinary people during kidnappings or hijackings.
People believe that catching criminals does not change the fact that they would still carry out their crimes without fear, which is why they generally prefer police to murder criminals rather than apprehend them.
This is the primary motivation for mob justice, which many communities have found successful in reducing crime rates. The government has made a public statement condemning mob justice and has repeatedly urged the public not to engage in it. They constantly remind people that if they participate in mob justice and are caught, they will be arrested.
