Police not security gaurds, says Selebi

Police Commissioner Jackie Selebi says his officers will not be turned into what he termed shopping mall guards despite the recent spate of robberies in Gauteng. In an interview with City Press, Selebi urged mall owners to secure their properties against robbers. In one of the most recent incidents, a policeman was killed when police exchanged fire with robbers in a mall in Rosebank on Friday. Robbers also targeted a mall in Fourways. Selebi told the newspaper that it was impossible for the police to guard every shop in the area but would diligently investigate each incident.
