VOLKSRUST - The local police station advised its surrounding communities recently that it will be temporarily closed due to one of its members having tested positive for the Covid-19 coronavirus on July 4.

The Community Service Centre will now be operated from a mobile police station in front of the police station in President Str itself.

The telephone lines at the Volksrust Police Station’s Community Service Centre will not be in operation for the duration of the closure; however, service delivery will not be hampered.

To contact the station, community members may call 073-218-1827 for all emergencies and complaints to be attended to accordingly. The station commander, Lt Col Dumsani Khumalo, may also be contacted at 082-579-0250.

The building will be decontaminated and services will resume normally at the station from Tuesday July 7.

The Mpumalanga SAPS apologised for any inconvenience.
