This report denounces the brutal treatment of illegal immigrants by the South African police as well as the thriving corruption among its services.The so-called 'raiding squads', which are responsible for officially charging, detaining and deporting illegal immigrants are in fact running a sordid but lucrative business, releasing the detainees for a high fee. They do not hesitate to use unmotivated physical and verbal violence against the people they arrest. Among other shocking stories, the film features the case of a Congolese woman viciously attacked in her own home and her fight for justice. Since xenophobia is widespread in all levels of South African society, there is little or no sympathy for the injustice done to immigrants.
I think it's time for most Africans to build their own counties and economies and stay there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well said, home is best but only when the government is absolutely good
@@akoamoseetave3091 There is nothing like absolutely good, you have free land, use it.
Then why do you subject yourself to imports ??? If you're THAT nationalistic, get tf off UA-cam. Make your own videography app.
Could u believe this!! Is not even the white cops 👮♀️ but black cops treating their own blacks like this! The WORLD is really coming to an END!! Thnx for the Documentary 🙏🇺🇸
11 years after this documentary and countless innocent lives have been lost because there's no accountability.
Check this out. Prior to 1994, South African farmers were the second most productive in the world! Only US farmers produced higher yields per acre. Now, South African farmers aren't even listed in the top 10. Hmmm, I wonder who's running the farms now?
Check this out. prior to 1994, whites in that neck of the woods as well as most of the world were responsible for the theft of land & resources, genocide, racism and segregation, exploitation of natives and general mass suffering! To this day, several family generations later, no one has ever been compensated and people are still suffering as a result! Had it been your people having had gone through such terrible things, hmmmm, i wonder if you would be sitting so rosy like the coward you are typing nonsense on here from behind your computer!
Yeah US farmers are the best in terms of corn per acre. However the Netherlands, 270 times smaller than the USA while having over 17.5 million inhabitants ranks second in terms of agriculture value, behind the US.
15 years later….farms are still in good hands😊
ANC destroyed farming. Mandela made deals with America before getting out of jail to destroy farming, relax treasury law, relax law for Americans to steal
I'm very much concerned about the African continent instate of staying in our own country and fix our countries we just move around forgetting that all the ,problems our countries are facing no 1 will ever fix it...these continent must be joined and we use the same currency and stop running from one country to the other we are all facing challenges...The only country that doesn't control it's economy is S.A so since you chased white people in your countries how is it working for you now...face your Anarchy hearts
But I thought all the police brutality was going to end when the ANC took over... That's what the media, politicians and movie stars told us!
CORUPTION WILL NEVER END
They era employed by the ANC. Those are the ones which necklaced blacks who didn't support ANC in Arpartheid days.
@ant germany They are killing their farmers,they are killing their country!!
It has become even worse, and although there are good real cops, unfortunately they are "worked out" by the corrupt majority. From your post it sadly has gone from bad to worse
There is a a few current cases where it is alledged that they are even involved in farm attacks and even "rent out" firearms for the "jobs
The truth is...every person that is a foreigner in any country will be treated differetly...regardless......
Julia Ndlovu LIAR, Please travel. You guys dont travel thats why, Go to nigeria, senegal cameroon, people will have compassion for you knowing you were former slaves!
I hv travelled enough my dear....to know and have proved this......these countries you have mentioned are so not in my league
I dont have to mentioned which coutries i have travelled and lived.....just to prove a point....like seriously
Foreigners are having it easy in South Africa
I am against police brutality or even abuse of power, but most of our African brothers and sisters are not the best of people, their regular shady dealings with police makes them targets for such treatment. They are loud, disrespectful and undermine the Laws of any country they find themselves in. Look how many Nigerians are facing Jail time and Death sentences in foreign countries. I love my African brothers and sisters but unfortunately majority of them are not nice people and their intentions are not in the best interest of SA.
Yoo sick to your stomach , seek help
Refugee for a Nigerian? Scammers
Don't forget drug pushers and people trafficking.
One thing that really breaks my heart 💔 is that Africanicity and warmth of the African , I mean look at the warmth that lady is expressing dispite all the humiliation she suffered she can still be so sweet as to smile.This breaks my heart really 😭
I think it's called ubuntu. 😑
Please come back home. My eyes are flowing with tears.
Jaysus, what a helluva mess. Fact remains that foreign gangs are coming into South Africa and performing crime never seen before. Then there are far more desperately poor immigrants pouring in from the rest of Africa, who are innocent of any crime. Then we have our own poverty issues that have never been resolved. That's just the start of it all. then there's racism, reverse racism and a whole lotta foreigners starring up shit here on the internet, having zero local South African knowledge
DON'T TRUST THE COPS!!
So tired of hearing about people being abused by others
The couple that were assaulted in their own home were, in fact, here legally. How do you explain their treatment then ? SA's should be ashamed that this is not only happening, but that it is supported as well.
Well isn't this the epitome of irony... Black SA's abusing and robbing immigrants, regardless if they are in SA legally or illegally. I find it incredibly disheartening that SA's have so quickly forgotten how they were treated during the Apartheid years and find it easy to assume that role toward immigrants. The corruption in the police force needs to be addressed immediately!
What do you mean there is no such thing as a white South-African!, an African can belong to any race.
I do not condone the police brutality, But these people are not refugees they claim to be, There are not wars in countries they come from. Nigeria is one of the richest country in the world with oil and minerals but hundred million of its citizens live in abject poverty. Why don't they at least try to fix their country.
Imagine you secure a job in the UK. And the English say there is no war in south Africa.there is gold and platinum were you are from.go back and fix your country ( as if you can). Imagine if we did that in sport ."pogba there is no war in your country, go back and fix the league" imagine if we did it in music. Xenophobia is a mental problem.its a perception thing. You are xenophobic my Friend. You possibly may not be violent.
Imagine a conversation with a billionaire who points out that you are able bodied ...
@@shadreckdangaphotography That's exactly what South Africans did without anybody telling them to go back and fight against apartheid regime with machine guns and mortars. Our freedom was not handed on a silver platter, many people died fighting. The fight is not yet over as we are now fighting for economic emancipation. How do you do that with foreigners taking up all the jobs for a slave wage. What is wrong if people fight for liberation in own countries rather than fighting for rights they don't have in foreign countries? Migrants from all the corners of the continent and beyond are only in South Africa to take up all the scarce jobs meant South Africans for a slave wage and others to sell drugs. Are you saying people should just sit back and watch as all of Africa and beyond descent on South Africa in the name of our African brothers and sisters from Africa who ran away from own countries? For how long are Africans going to run away from own countries instead of fighting for liberation?
@@shadreckdangaphotography During the brutal apartheid regime there were no black South Africans looking for jobs in other countries. They were only there to train as freedom fighters and went back carrying only weapons to fight for liberation of the people.
@@shadreckdangaphotography But thing is, during one of the most oppressive time in the life of Black South Africans called Apartheid, they never even once considered leaving and abandoning their country. They stayed and fought for over 40 years for Apartheid to end. The only people who were leaving were people who were living in exile in other countries mostly for training and protection. They didn't go en masses into other countries... What I'm saying is, South Africans obviously will get annoyed when they see people coming to enjoy the liberties of freedom they fought for their children. That's the issue here, if you leave your country, who do you expect to make it better. Thing is that we've come up with many bad names for it but it's really not, when people tell you to go and fix your country and you become offended. How is that even offensive?
Is there something wrong with that statement?
In South Africa children were dying being shot by the police, but not even once did the South African community want to leave the country while they were living in what you'd call legal slavery. However we want to frame it. How will Africa be great when everyone wants to head South. All Africa must be equal in development before we open the borders. Because if we don't do that, the most developed nations will suffer, we can already see it now how South Africa is suffering. Our African brothers and Sisters expect us to prioritize them but we also have refugees from Pakistan, Iraq etc those other places in the Middle East.
That's the issue here, South Africa can't handle it, if people weren't quick to get so offended they'd see that.
We need all African countries to be equal and developed fairly and equally so that the moment we open up free movement, no one country suffers more than the other.
South Africa is also aware of the help it received from other African countries. So how long do we have to repay that help actually, South Africa send military and financial aid now across Africa but that is never enough. Whenever there is an earthquake or drought, South Africa is there to help other African countries by donating money. Now problem here is it wasn't only African states who helped during Apartheid, even European countries helped, but they never use that against South Africa everytime to remind it how much they helped end Apartheid and how much SA owes them. Whether we like it or not, the South African lands have been fought for centuries. South Africa is also one of the African countries with extreme levels of violence dating back to colonialism. The Mfecane, the Anglo-Zulu war, the Anglo-Boer war, the Basotho-Boer. You are in the country of people who've had to fight for their lands their whole lives and fighting is all they know. And you expect them to just quietly move over because you have the same skin colour. Should I remind you of tribalism. Bottom line is every country has its mess, but if we move and runaway from our mess and inconvenience another country and add to its burden. Of course they'll have a problem, we see it now with Europe believing that they think they are going extinct because of immigrants and refugees, they absolutely hate it. That is human nature everywhere and South Africa is not unique to this. Nigeria is Africa's largest economy. Nigerian people shouldn't have to keep going to other countries, that's the reality we should be facing without people getting offended. That's the reality here, how do you solve a problem when you run and get mad when you are later confronted by its reality that it exists. South Africa is not even unique in this, we saw it with Ghana and Nigeria also when they were busy kicking each other out of their own countries. But now they like to pretend like they don't do that when they're in South Africa.
I went to church with a south African (from Durban)growing up. We had a south African (Zulu)drug dealer in our neighborhood. At the church in attending currently we have south Africans resident permanently. Imagine how many came and blended in when things looked better for Zimbabwe, when the economy still has ambers from Ian Smith. You see the rest of Africa really has no borders. I lived in East Africa for a few years,no one asked me for my papers until I went to the airport. In Zimbabwe today your passport is only needed at the border beyond there no one cares. My landlord is Nigerian! Our security guard is Zambian.
No one troubles them. Perhaps my opinion is flawed by travel and exposure..
After all I'm part Ndebele Xhosa Shona afrikaaner British Shangaan .
I remember meeting a Rwandesse for the first time and remember understanding their language without learning it .
Even in UK South Africans get all xenophobic 4getting that they're not home lol
I think the point is that there is a burgeoning black middle class in South Africa, but unfortunately things have not drastically improved for the majority of black South Africans. In fact some of these South Africans preferred their life under Apartheid. That really says something about the economic inequalities in that country. Mind you, the UK's among the worst in Europe for economic inequality.
Are you on some kind of FUCKING DRUG? You clearly have NO idea what in the living Holy Hell you are talking about.
" In fact some of these South Africans preferred their life under Apartheid.".....Who told you this goddamned LIE ? The ONLY ones who preferred "life" under the Apartheid system (as if you even know or understand what the fuck that even means, imbecile !) were WHITE people ! I know ! I saw them !!! WITH MY OWN TWO EYES !
Sweet Blood of the Holy Risen Christ !, but you are stupid ! You should have a vasectomy, or get your "tubes tied". Also, kill each and every single member of your shamefully inbred "family so that no more of you are "bred" into this assaulted world, to contaminate this poor, afflicted planet any more than it already i,s and already has been.
"That really says something about the economic inequalities in that country."....have you visited the United States of America lately ?....speaking about ECONOMIC INEQUALITIES ?
JESUS !!!
No sane black South African will prefer Apartheid stop with your lies.
The SA border was protected for years by the SADF in order to avoide this. They should not be there. There are enough people in SA with out jobs. Besides the fact they run most of the crime and drugs.
We will keep the fighting spirit high. Change will come whether you like it or not.
same area where Nigerians were caught with kidnapped teenagers and drug house, burnt down and attacked the Nigerians, we all know where the drugs are sold in JHB go identify which nationals dominate the streets, I have many foreign friends but some nationalities are bad, very bad
I think some south Africans are bad than anything. They burn people alive.
Hey bro wake up call , this is South Africa 😕 I was harassed by a cop literally the other day . Cops give black people a hard time in mzansi period .
You should censer citizen faces for thei safety
welcome to south africa......after apartheid
Almost feels like the ANC just wanted to have the power the Afrikaners had for themselves and used the struggle for their own interest and not the interest of the public
South Africans genrallt don;t have problems with Africans working here. There are millions of Zimbabweans and other nationals within our borders, who gets along quite fine with locals. However, certain groups of immigrants are notorious for not seeking employment, but rather engage in criminal activity. Vast swathes of urban areas are turned in slums and virtual no-go areas for locals. And if you are an illegal immigrant, the police have to perform their duty.
sad world my friend we just have to do our best for us and our family !!!!
Journeyman - please keep up this great work of yours. Thank you so much.
Some of South African people they hate their. Own family, their brother and sisters.,
It would be nice if these people had a camera too show how the police are abusing their power.
It would be nice to see them on camera showing that they had legal papers to be living and working in South Africa
It would have been nice if yous weren't here there would be no abuse of power.
Most African immigrants who goto America are usually highly educated.
13 years later and not a single thing has changed. I unfortunately make up the list of victims.
A lawless world is a corrupt world.
I hope they show the other side there's always two sides. Too much foreign nationals in SA and it needs to be controlled before it gets out of hand. It's just life everything has to be monitored. Feel sorry for those who came to SA for the right reasons and have done things the right way
100/right go back home 🏡 to solve this problem they must go back home 🏡. what are there doing here in SA.nothing just destroying our economy..... police must continue Hadley doing what they are doing
Did this lady get any medical care for her injury?
Really sad... Please investigate the rate of the "public" killing police and violence against police... Just for balance. But STILL SAD, VERY SAD
@EyeWearMySunglasses These xenophobic attacks mainly took place in the squatter areas by people who knew that the victims were immigrants.It didn't happen in the big cities or normal towns.
"....we are seen as one of the most zenophobic countries in the world....our communities are highly zenophobic, highly intolerant, especially of foreigners of African origin...."
African against African.......in the new South Africa...in the Rainbow Nation......how surprising - not!!!!!!!!!??????
The chinese are not in south Africa yet ? Food for thought.
Exactly
But this situation is out of hand, if the policve are doing this as well. We need to stop this something seriously needs to be done.
I am a black South African. Very proud of it. I am however saddend by what's going on back home.
1. BOTH my grandparents r frm Lesotho
2. some of my dear friends back home r frm Zim, Mali, Angola, Nigeria, malawi... I could go on.
I watched the video n read the comments n I cn't help bt noticed how every1 is cyber "attacking" eachother. It's th@ very attitude th@ leads 2 what is happening in SA. We need 2 stop looking @ it as an "US" n "THEM" thing people. WE r all AFRICANS.
Im South African and I am appauled and disgusted and embarrassed by all this nosense I am ashamed why beat a woman to blood and leave her in blood and harrass her because they are refugees what is this Im in shock its the SAPS hiring uneducated people off the sttreet what does the minister of justice and defence say about this seriously?????????????
with all the respect but somehow i understand why so many cops die in SA.
With Jacob Zuma as president I recon Xenophobic attacks will only increase. The majority of black South Africans just cannot live with other blacks, you can never take that killer tribal instinct out of them which is exactly why we employed foreign black workers
They are dealing with you in your farms
How can an African be an immigrant in Africa...
Same way Mexicans Are immigrants in America even though they are all North American
and guess what 90% of the police who do this is black, trust me i know what i'm talking about. i'm a coloured south african and my boyfriend is nigerian, he had to pay them R300-00 last week. they then asked me what i'm doing with makwerekwere
That's crazy..police brutality is a real issue all over the world except for those with money,I wished someone would come alone and do something about it.
The rest of Africa protected South Africans when they were struggling. And now South Africans don't want to help others in need.
We rule this country and people are paying taxex to this government. So what are you saying.
Why just South Africa many African countries ill treat South Africans in their countries and you can not hear of that.
It is unfortunate that a people who were assisted by those they call Kwere-Kwere, and accorded refuge by their Kwere-Kwere brothers for decades see it now fit to brutalize the very people who assisted them in their time of need, Other African living in SA are not beggars they earn a living and work, there are Africans of all nature living in all other African countries
Blest are the merciful
FOR THEY SHALL OBTAIN MERCY
Blest are the true peace makers

WELCOME TO AFRICA
South Africa not all Africa
Comrade Malema please do something about this. @EFF #EFF #JuliusMalema
#FloydShibambo
THings just seem very unhappy over there in SA
Yea! It's just like theU.S..
@madscientistify You know we as South Africans are doing something about poverty...however one needs to remember that Rome was not build in one day. Poverty in S.A is something that has been around for over 100 years and has only really been dealt with since 1994 and it will take atleast another 80 years to eradicate what apartheid has done to the none whites of S.A.
I apologise for the way in which I responded to your previous comment.
Did you hear that one comment by the narrator? "Up next, a Congolese woman covered in blood." What sensationalism, but hell they know how to keep attention.
0:30 well if you sneak in a country illegally then that's breaking the law and belong in jail
But are they illegal, they did present their documents mos
Y'all are just evil
This is Africa, please wake up! Nothing new, if you look or have read the history of South Africa, and I'm not talking about recent years. Black on Black violence have been around for centuries, why does everybody think this would change when apartheid ended.
I'm so angry in my spirit ! U don't treat anyone like that, no matter where they from or who they are.
i suggest you send those 2 cops to Nigeria for a few months:)))
FOR SURE
Atleast they are the cops who does the cruel thing to be kind
WHAT???????????????????????????????🤥🤔
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A NON THEIVING BLACK MAN EITHER
You all need a reality check! Watch the video and then post comments that relate. These are everyday realities particular to South Africa, if you aren't familiar with our current socio-political landscape then rather refrain from commenting. We're dealing with our racial issues, you should too!
I'm sure they'll all say this is better than apartheid!!
They must go all of them
yea i used botswana as an example of corse there is other african countrie which are doing very well
Dont get too excited vanhuvakuru. The only reason that happened is because foriegn investors who pulled out during apartheid came back to SA. Wait, everything that goes up, has to come down. Look at unemployment, look at the jobless figures. They are worse than they ever were during apartheid. You look at one aspect. Look at the big picture. More people suffer in SA today than they ever have
It is a common thing that in situations like this innocent people are the ones who suffer and those who are corrupt whether they are foreigners or citizens carry-on with their daily corrupt lives. It is clear that for as long as human beings are ruling one another suffering is surely to take place. Let His Kingdom come, which will do away with all the corrupt system and put down the borders among humans.
Just go back home
Go back at home the police are ryt
Go back home you are overcrowded already please goooooo
Why did they come in the first place. Police is not only bad to foreigners.
Rose you scumbag
voetsek stupid xenophobic bastard you should be ashamed of your self
Nigeria was at the middle of dismantling Apartheid regime. Please let the Boras come back to SA asap!
I feel sorry for these ppl, unjustified, abuse! Money money money
Look how freely speeking about police can u do that in their Country?
That is very sad thing to know. So a Nigerian in South Africa is seen as an "enemy" but not as a fellow African brother/sister. I am amazed to know this. It's very sad. How is the FIFA world Cup going to be held in a situation like this??
And they came with bad many things here.they must leave they're many here for northing.explain to me what the foreigners help us here in SA.with......! northing just to destroy our economy
Yeah then look what happened to Somalia, Rwanda, Sudan..(the list goes on)
Foreign nationals, please don't expect VIP treatment on foreign soil. Israelites in exile also received a harsh treatment, so; do you.
No matter what you think or say life in foreign soil is not going to be easy for foreign nationals wether illegal or legal.
@63gstone I thought the same.
Viva to the new saf afriki.a better life for all.😋👌
I see.
"TIA - This is Africa" - Danny Archer
Well if the police 🚓 are asking you for your 'paper's' and you end up giving them 'pepper's' instead then no wonder your getting beat up.
its sad how we treat each other as humans, SA will be like this for a long time. its just the way abuse goes people who are abused will abuse the next person who comes along; also poor up bring plays a part, makes me ashamed as a south african. feel sorry for these people.
I wish Africa was a country
What you need to do is look beyong economic growth and look at factors which affect the people. The general public are not benifitting from economic growth. Poverty and joblessness is worse than ever. Townships get bigger on a daily basis. Where is all the foreign investment going? It is not being ploughed back into the country eg: water purification, electricity, roads, housing, job creation. Did you not learn about all of that in your business major
It is sad on how cops treat people in this country.
Not everyone the kwere kweres let's be very clear
We're documenting this evil
That's true it's not lies I'm a victim as well on my visit to SA in 2008 when there was a mass deportation I lost my passport to police officer Sergeant Ximba of Brackendowns police station was held in Alberton cells frm Friday till Monday when DHA came I had nothing to prove that I was legally in the country looked for my passport bt where told the Officer who took it went on leave I was forced to bribe 800 since I couldn't prove that indeed I was legally in SA, that was goodbye to my passport coz the officer said he had given it back bla bla he left it at police station I was being held til I had to apply for another passport they just have to do this arrests with DHA present to verify ur papers the harassment is too much
Africans in Africa they called foreigners? and killing them torturing them?shame on you.
it's better than Johannesburg that's for sure...
and help each other, lets practise peace and start treating others good, people who go out to other countries to live are just searching the best for them and to their own, isn't a country big enough to open the doors with arms wide open or it's all about just giving and not receiving? Gosh what kind of animals some people are? change man, stop violence, if you don't like anyone just give them respect no matter how u don't like them,no matter what colour or race you are, you are human brothers
You should see what UK teachers cops do to intimidate here taking children into care.
They expect first class treatmeñ that they cannot get in their own countries
Um ok?
I was a white south African.....and I feel for these people!
You "were" a white south African.. .you what are you now if you were?

The police law 7 of 1958 should be changed and ASAP. A policeman has to many power which they abuse.
@gallisable there ur no batswanaz in s.a .any if they ur they ur just here to visit not steal local jobs same goes to namibians but zimbabweans ur becoming a strain on our little resources we have
