- Hijacking is one of the rising crimes in South Africa. According to the latest SAPS quarterly data, crime increased by 14% during the fourth quarter of the 2021/2022 financial year. It has the community of Manguzi, along the Mozambican border living in fear as syndicates pounce in the middle of the night at their residence; take their cars and other household items and drive them to the border fence where they tie them up before vanishing across the border. While the problem dates back at least 23 years ago, it got worse around the 2000s. The police and community leaders say while the crime has gone down a bit now since the government sent teams from the national office and improved its SANDF deployment on the border, residents still live in fear and want their cars, some of which are stored in Mozambique returned. SABC’s In-Depth team went there to speak to victims of the hijackers and visit their alleged hideout, where some police officers also fear to go.

This ANC led government has failed dismally. In September I was in Mozambique and their cars don't need secured parking as we do here in South Africa. People just park their cars on the road side in the evening and fetch them in the morning the following day. I mean all the high risk cars, Toyota SUV's like Fortuner, Prado, Land cruisers and Ford Ranger
My
It is because they didn't buy them with hard earned money
And watsho uKing Zwelithini uba mabathathe amanikiniki wabo bahambe.
What is sad is that even if you can cross the border and go find your car in Mozambique, it will not be returned
Only Ramaphosa can collect his stolen items from anywhere
It's risky to own a car in South Africa especially bakkies... foreign nationals are giving us tough times 😭
It's not foreigners,it's SouthAfrcans who steal and take them to Mozambique.
Its not only foreigners broe, your Zulu brothers from KZN are involved, they r the ones who still cars from yr side then drive them to Mozambique for buyers
Im glad Western Cape is not bordering any country.. these foreigners are causing a havoc in SA and Julius Malema and the ANC don't see anything wrong with it
None of the people who confessed in this report , even the kingpin are foreign. You just heard the name Mozambique and you jumped the gun
@@andzagatsheni521 with all due respect Boyabenyathi, Uyanya!!!.. All these cars are hijacked and taken to Mozambique; are they taken to South Africans there or to Mozambican buyers? Sukunya apha; sine ngxaki yee foreigners wena undxelela uba im jumping the gun yobubhanxa!!
Ay isingathi wonke ama foreigners ayasihlupha many are here legally only minority are causing havoc here in South Africa
@@ndumisohector7020 So are you saying that they must be left alone whilst they are causing problems?.. I am not understanding the core of your argument.. You agree that foreigners are causing issues but you say they are a minority.. my question to that is: Does that make this a trivial matter that must not be dealt with?
@@Bongz90 I didn't say abayekwe it just I didn't go further that is were I was wrong what I am trying to say my brother let not group them and say all of them because the term foreign is broad the thing is you not looking it deep standard bank, Capitec,FNB they are own by foreigners lot of companies are own by foreigners they are also causing havoc because many are paid less but what we doing most of the time we don't talk about then instead we talk about Nigerians, Namibians, Ghanian but the other we give them a pass, all in all what I am trying to prevent is to hate someone who is trying to provide because of someone else
I think it's time for SA citizens to go to these nearby countries and avenge the crime's that were committed here
Come to Zim sizalibonisa
Should start in government first
Everyone knows that our laws favour criminals
You didn't protect this Guy I could hear the voice and I could see who it is I'm sure many people from umhlabuyalingana have recognized him
Why should the SA government take the blame for all this mess, what are the neighboring countries police doing in assisting to arrest this situation. Don't the neighboring countries have police or soldiers to guard their bordes, is it only South Africa's responsibility to guard the porous borders, surely SA will never win theis battle if neighboring countries are only spectators and receiving stolen goods. It's high time that the neighboring countries are held responsible and let them pay, for the loses that SA incur due to them allowing this crime in their own countries.
Still black people will vote for ANC
Mind my fire fox wire through that fake ID of destroying my light future.
