In 2008 Simon Prophet petitioned. Collecting the signatures was an arduous task. But ten thousand people signed.

A survey
that canvasses a pool of 10 000 people is massive and provides an acurate
barometer as to how South Africans think on this subject. Democratically speaking then we can conclude that civil asset forfeiture is not OK and also that the Prevention of Organized Crime Act of 1998 is not acceptable to the majority of ordinary people. |
