esidents reacted in solidarity with the victims of gang violence by coming out in prayer or peace at several public events last week. Lentegeur police joined residents at a Peace Festival at Woodville Primary School, in
Woodlands, on Saturday 12 July. Lentegeur police spokesperson Const Navon van Houten said the event was driven by the sub-forum, in conjunction with Lentegeur Community Police Forum (CPF) and that several community leaders attended, including councillors.
“We simply want to lift up the area in prayer ...” - Cisca Badenhorts
Activities on the day included games and a holiday programme for youth. “Station commander Col Rameshwarneth also engaged with the community and brought a message of hope to the youth of Woodlands,” he said. On Sunday 13 July a prayer “carcade” moved between several
Mitchell’s Plain suburbs. Shahiem van Nelson, the chair of Save Mitchells Plain, which organised the event, said the motorcade was the second one which had been held on consecutive Sundays in response to the gang violence.
