> SAPS (South African Police Services) Occult Related Crimes Unit
> The SAPS Occult Related Crimes Unit was established in 1992 during the final years of apartheid by born-again Christian Kobus Jonker, prompted by former Minister of Law and Order Adriaan Vlok. Jonker joined the SAP in 1969 and was previously head of the Port Elizabeth Murder and Robbery Unit. During his policing career he earned the nicknames "Donker Jonker", "The Hound of God" and "God's Detective".
> As late as 2006 SAPS defined occult-related crime on the Occult Related page of their website as follows:
> Occult-related crime means any human conduct that constitutes any legally recognized crime, the modus operandi of which relates to or emanates primarily from any belief or seeming belief in the occult, witchcraft, satanism, mysticism, magic, esotericism and the like. Included in the scope of occult-related crime are ritual muti/medicine murders, witch purging, witchcraft-related violence and sect-related practices that pose a threat to the safety and security of the Republic of South Africa and/or its inhabitants.
> ---SAPS, Objectives of the Investigation and Prevention of Occult-Related Crime by the General Detectives
> Danielle Dunbar refers to the SAPS definition of occult-related crime in her 2012 MA thesis:
> Under this broad purview of the 'occult', the specialised Occult Related Crimes Unit predominantly targeted the threat of Satanism in South Africa. Indeed, the conceptualisation of the world’s only 'ritual murder' task force was fostered in the last embers of apartheid South Africa during a white, satanic panic.
