If we have a shortage of samples, how are we going to locate those criminals if we did not take it? Are we not failing our brothers and sister who has been victims of GBV if we did not take the samples? — Shembeni.#DNA #DNAbacklog #DNAbacklogSA #DNAdisaster

No progress reported. We need to arrest and prosecute sexual offenders while evidence of their monstrous act is still fresh and at hand. These people need to be removed from our communities before they can destroy another life. #DNA #DNAbacklog #DNAbacklogSA #DNAdisaster
