Bayview Community Policing Forum chairperson, Brandon Pillay says he understands residents' frustrations.


"To have killed a pregnant woman on the eve of Women's Day shows a blatant disregard for anything that our country is fighting, especially against GBV.


"This is a sign of a community that is fed up with criminal elements, who are not wanting to sit back any longer and really I hope that we get some high-level intervention."
