SACC calls for urgent action to protect women

The South African Council of Churches is calling for urgent action to protect women.

This comes after eight bodies of women were found in Gauteng's East Rand in just two months.

The SACC says the deaths of women in Kempton Park, Olifantsfontein and Springs have sparked fear and outrage.

The Council has called for faster investigations, prosecutions and the implementation of the national Gender-Based Violence and Femicide disaster declaration.
