Fidelity CEO calls on army to tackle cash-in -transit heists
Fidelity CEO Wahl Bartmann has called on the army to intervene in the cash-in-transit heists. This is after it took police 30 minutes to respond to a heist in Johannesburg over the weekend.
Bartmann slammed the police for the slow response time, saying their attitude towards CIT heists is inadequate.
Bartmann spoke recently in an interview with eNCA following a cash-in-transit heist that took place on Saturday, 7 October, on the N12 in Johannesburg. The heist took place near Mondeor. During the heist, a woman driving a BMW was hijacked and kidnapped.
According to eNCA, it took over 30 minutes for the police to show up on the scene, a response time Bartmann finds unacceptable. Bartmann pointed out that the company went to parliament, and afterwards, there was support from the SAPS. However, the support seems to have declined, and the recent heist was proof.
