Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31546, member: 636"] Bulawayo, Zimbabwe's second-biggest city, is worried about dangerous crime everywhere. People feel scared because bad things keep happening around them. A bank robbery shocked everyone six months ago. Brave robbers stopped a security van and stole four million US dollars right in the middle of the day. People watching thought something strange was happening but could not believe their eyes. A police officer named Sergeant Abel Masava died after trying to help someone during a family fight. Police later caught some people they believed were responsible for hurting him. They found guns connected to many robberies at stores and gas stations. Numbers show Bulawayo has more crime than other parts of Zimbabwe. More than two thousand crimes happen for every hundred thousand people. Experts say the city has serious problems with safety and security. Residents want the police to do something fast to make their neighborhoods safe again. Many people feel worried and want protection from criminals who keep breaking the law and hurting others. The bank robberies made people examine how banks work. Some people think the bank gave money to its owners around the same time someone stole cash, which reduces people's trust in banks. Zimbabwe's bank leaders are trying to help by removing some fees for small transactions. They hope this will make people feel better about using banks. However, most people still feel unsure about what is happening. Solving these crime problems will take time and hard work. Police must work with communities and find ways to stop people from breaking the law. Everyone hopes Bulawayo can become a safer place to live and work. [/QUOTE]
