We will be opening criminal cases against property owners that we found to have tampered with our municipal infrastructure to steal water and electricity. Our focus today was in Pretoria West where removed several illegal cables. Last week, we found tampering on accounts worth over R40 million. The removal of illegal connections isn’t enough without holding accountable perpetrators of illegal connections. City of Tshwane
