At a briefing on Wednesday, ANC regional secretary Musa Nciki said Durban's streets had become a playground for thugs.
"The barbaric murder of Mr Kiernan 'AKA' Forbes and his close friend Tebello' Tibz' Motsoane is a sad highlight of the serious problem we are facing.
"The United Front Against Crime must be relaunched by the municipality. We indicated over the weekend that the City must install wifi operated CCTV cameras that identifies criminals through face recognition technology."
