How you can help in a Cash-In-Transit (CIT) heist

  • Jun 13, 2019
  • 1 min read



Cash In Transit (CIT) heists are on the increase and are fast becoming one of the biggest dangers to the South African public. Figures from the South African Banking Risk Information Council (SABRIC) show that there were 378 CIT robberies in 2017. That is, on average, over one CIT incident per day, reflecting a 41% increase of these incidents year-on-year.

Eyewitness accounts can assist law enforcement, however the public is warned not to put themselves at risk. Namola and Dialdirect offer the following tips to bystanders who witness a CIT:

Be Safe. Get to a place of safety as quickly as possible. Never put your own safety at risk.

Report the incident. The public has been urged to download the Namola app and press the emergency ‘Request Assistance’ button when witnessing a CIT robbery or other crime to #GetHelpFast. An appeal has also been made to the public to come forward with information. Tip-offs can be made anonymously to Crime Stop by calling 08600 10111.

Be observant: What are the perpetrators wearing? What colour and make is the car? Can you see the licence plate number (or a portion of it)?

Download the Dialdirect Namola app  FREE, either from the Apple App Store or Google Play, or visit www.namola.com.

Very practical and timely advice especially for a busy time like New Year’s Eve. The tips were clear and easy to follow, which https://cabriostructures.com/ makes a big difference. I recently read something similar on a based review blog and it reinforced many of your points.

You explained the risks and the role ordinary people can play in staying safe and helping authorities in a very clear, practical way. Many people don’t realize how critical awareness and quick reporting can be in these situations, and your guidance makes the steps easy to understand. I recently came across a similar safety-focused discussion on https://www.attn2detail.info/ that also emphasized how informed communities contribute to prevention and response. Posts like this are valuable because they empower readers with knowledge that can make a real difference.
