Your Safety & Security Magazine
Servamus December 2025
It is no secret that organised crime groups/cartels/syndicates have made a home for themselves in South Africa, and allegedly even among some politicians and corrupt law enforcers. Sadly, the public often falls victim to these criminals’ actions in the form of illegal alcohol and unregulated pesticides sold to them, or even when they buy seafood without knowing the origins. Organised crime is a reality that affects every one of us and creating awareness about its different forms is the only way to protect ourselves and our families. Make sure you prioritise reading the December 2025 issue of Servamus to stay clear of these criminals’ often deadly traps.
