POLICEMEN from Muizenberg and Ocean View have been honoured by their community police forums.

Constable Gerard Meyer of Muizenberg Police was recently chosen as Policeman of the Year for 2005 by the Muizenberg Community Police Forum.

The 21-year-old constable is the son of a former police captain and joined the police in May 2003.

Meyer said he has a passion for helping people and is concerned about gangsterism and drugs, especially the crystal methamphetamine (tik) problem. "The youth must say no to gangsterism and drugs," he said.

Ocean View detectives were awarded certificates by the Ocean View Community Police Forum.

Sergeant Stephan Share and Constable James Smith received certificates for best standby group after making 104 arrests from October to December last year.

Constable Ridewaan Isaacs was chosen as best improved detective on the investigation squad and Inspector Charl Muller as best detective on the court squad. Muller stood in the dock to successfully oppose bail for suspects 38 times.

Pamela Rennick also received a certificate for best administrator.

According to Ocean View police spokesperson Peter Magman, the Ocean View Detective Unit has moved up to 11th place, from 26th, on the West Metropole performance chart.
