GBV survivors dropping charges a cause of concern: Dube-Ncube
Updated | By Noxolo Miya
KZN Premier Nomusa Dube-Ncube says she's worried that many gender-based violence survivors return to police stations to drop the cases they've opened.

"We are really saying to people, do not go and remove the cases from the roll when you are being abused."
Dube-Ncube was speaking during the closing ceremony of the 16 Days of Activism campaign in Caluza in Pietermaritzburg on Sunday.
She was joined by Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma and other dignitaries.

Candles of hope were lit for the victims of gender-based violence.
Dube-Ncube said their efforts to end violence against women and children will continue every day.
"We want to send that message that now that we reached 16 days, let’s not stop, let’s have 365 days especially now when we approach the festive season, there's a lot of issues of gender-based violence that we see."
