@@Danceafricavibes-w3k I too was always confused at how police and politicians make it their mission to avoid talking about Zama Zama in any capacity whatsoever. For years they had no problem shouting about corruption, GBV, CIT heists, etc. But they said nothing about Zama Zama's even though Zama Zama syndicates are the most heavily armed and most organized militia in South Africa. After the gang rape incident, it was actually the first time I ever heard the word "zama zama" and "illegal mining" come out of the a politician's mouth.
Last time they did that it was a whole "human rights" crisis, remember? People complained that SAPS was being too cruel, now you asking for it again, make up your minds.
@@motlaupidikgale1550 I'm the problem? I'm not the one saying we should let dogs mame people to death one day and complaining that it happened a week later. Just so you know, I'm referring to the SAPS K9 killings of the illegal immigrants in 2013. When SAPS used immigrants as chew toys for their K9s and 2 of them ended up dead. The whole country was upset about that, but now you want it back, that's why I'm saying people must choose what they want, not get mad when SAPS does something that they asked for.
This zama zama thing is very serious an it's a danger to our people, investigate deep an find out who employed those security guards with heavy weapons.
I have been following this zama zama issue for a few years now this was even on Carter Blanche..and the police always complained that these guys are heavily armed.. so I think it's bout time the army is called in
They are the most heavily armed criminal organization in South Africa, and yet the national attention they received in the past was so little. If it wasn't for the recent incident that made the ANC wake up, they were going to wake up by the time this syndicate has become so powerful that they perform a military coup against our government.
A little tooooo late. Cele and his comrades can never win the war. They knew for many years about the Zama zamas. Act reactively instead of proactively.
These people will be out soon.It has been going on for so long .Do you think police did not know about this.This syndicates involve high profile people. The seller and the buyers. Those arrested are just workers
The SAPS are like someone whose reflexes are out of place in that the person gets slapped by another whilst talking to others and doesn't react to the slap immediately by touching his/her face (if that's possible). Instead the person weirdly remembers to react after 10 minutes after the incident. My point is that the SAPS's tactics are reactive as opposed to proactive. In simple terms, they wait for trouble to ferment before reacting instead of taking pre-emptive action when they have the opportunity. The so-called Zama Zama problem is not a new one to Gauteng and yet it seems to be taking more brazen and sinister dimensions lately as recently happened in Krugersdorp.
SAPS ran away from the mines in the South because those zama zama's have their own security. That's what our SAPS is - cowards. They LITERALLY just left. Sies! Cele and SAPS are well aware of most criminals - either they collect bribes or they just ignore it. Work and working properly is not their thing. And never will be. This is just an ANC vote ploy. 🙄
You didn't do an "operation" you liar!!!!!! As ALWAYS you did NOTHING while you knew very well that these zama zama's were operating and where. An "operation" is something you do on information or as standard procedure in crime spots. So stop talking rubbish and telling lies.

@@ginger0208 Mandela and his fellow Roben-Islanders were blinded by bitterness of being detained under inhumane conditions by apartheid justice system! That blindness drove them to selfishly make a Constitution that protects the rights of criminals than those of the law-abiding citizens! Honestly speaking, I hate this Constitution.
@@steadfastmj78 It's one of the best constitutions in the world. I don't agree with some of it, but I understand why some laws and regulations are there, such as prisoner's rights.
I like this leader here 7:20, he makes sense and he gives me confidence.
Now I see why the whole world wanted NP government gone. NP government was a stumbling block. ANC and Mandela was their door to South Africa.
Wow I'm so proud of SAPS. I was loosing hope in them but honestly they have made us proud.
They must keep going. This must become normal 👍
wow. you gotta have limited whatever
@ALLFUN so they shouldn't do anything?
Allow those dogs to
Praise
GOD. Sandra as Grace.
Thumps up commissioner at last you gathered a valid information kindly restore order in Wesrand
Good work Thanks🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
My Fellow South Africans you are in good hands
"Just put the authority of the state and make the people normally. For the police is to collect, the are other departments Home Affairs, Social Development and all [that] they will see what to do.
"But ours is to make sure that we collect whoever that might be the source of crime even those who are young," said Police Minister Bheki Cele.
(Media 24 a few hours ago )
Thank you sir, we will pray for you and your teams
I’m guessing you’ll still need to sell seized guns to fund this?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
We aren't trusting anyone if anybody who doesn't fit with a different accent names that are not from SA then they'll drop we are now fed up & do not trust the police either so, we will protect ourselves full stop we've given this unless government a chance & now we are going to effectively diffend ourselves regardless of the police or the government
@@tutonguni529 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This I don't understand once a tragedy they are boots on the grownd. Tipical
Exactly?!
They knew about the zama zamas for years but did nothing. They wait for terrible crimes before they act!
I see the guys are caught, now the problem is what should we do when you see these guys out after few days?
This guys are brave though, even though the heat is coming their way, they still continuing mining......
They’re not brave at all, they’ve just become used to law enforcement avoiding confrontations with them
This is just a clean up operation after the storm. We need Sandf boots on the ground for a few months until the threat is eliminated one and for all . General said Saps cannot go in that volitile area with one vehicle, it will be suicidal. Don't risk your lives unnecessarily, Sandf is trained to handle these heavy caliber AK 47 and explosives. 🙏
The EFF and Julius Malema is no where to be found and they are so quiet, I wonder why they think one day they will govern SA
It's high time SA goes back to the way it was ....clean and beautiful
I would never be proud of SAPS bcz they act once people raise their voice.its just a waste of time for me looking up to our Police.
These people will be soon out with even free bail so nothing surprise me.
When are they going to listen, high walls and electric fences around the border will help big time.
Becareful Julius malema is angry now.
DA is happy too see because they believe they will get more elections but that will not happen.
I wish all cases would get the same attention not only cases that get media attention.
For the fact that 8 women were raped I will never have hope and respect ever again in our police, we all know this has always been going on for years
It was a tragedy, a very bad one, but were you really expecting Police to be on guard even in the bushes..... Remember there is no people stays there.... Only criminal operate there, i mean sometimes lets be reasonable
They are corrupt and never there whether it's in the bushes or townships and everywhere in SA, they are corrupt and such crimes happen every day in our communities, people are being killed everywhere
People who shoot music videos openly always have security with them 🙄 you can't expert the police to be in bushes
If your daughter was raped you would never say such but let me not argue you just don't get it
It'll still continue its sad but there's just more to come peeps will see how the ANC let the country go to the barbarians complete sub human. Umnqundu we ANC, EFF plus mainstream media suthemba kwasanto.
How i wish the media should leave the cops alone to do their work in peace n focus... honestly think they being a nuisance
Not all zama zamas are bad people. is it a crime to be poor
Listen to you, it's not a CRIME to be poor but it is a crime when you do ILLEGAL stuff which they do, ILLEGAL MINING. SO WHAT IS MAKING OTHERS BETTER THAN OTHERS, CRIME IS CRIME.
Thanks police for good job so let keep on to protect south Africa first and please god protect you and give you power.
ANC criminals are involved in this
Big black market for cars in ALEXANDRA, I WAS HIGH JACK AND A POLICE TOLD ME, I MUST PAY IF I WANT MY CAR 😈
The dog wants to bite this guys, they must let it bite.
THANK YOU TO THE SAP..WE PRAY FOR YOU. Sandra as Grace
Ridiculous turning an active crime scene into a movie set. Any half good lawyer will get those guys off due to tainted evidence and highly compromised arrest processes
You named it, "a movie set". Pure propaganda, it is propaganda to cover up useless public servants, being paid good money by citizens to do nothing.
The government trying to prove to the people they are doing their job. We, the people, are not stupid.
ANC government, you can fool some of the people some of the time, but not all of us all of the time.
Klerksdorp is bad we need something like this
What if they are hiding their weapons behind the bushes and they are also hiding in there
They canvased the area, he said that a few times...
Something has to happen first before these bums act.
Why only you wake up now Then l see lots of brass onTv are they Sap or Tv Stars
Death sentence must come back, we have lost many of our brothers and sisters even innocent children bcos of illegal foreigners
Aaaa
Commissioner u said it with your mouth that they were carrying guns but u failing to to make them to talk n show I were they have hidden guns???
This is another form of poor policing. The whole commissioner yohhh
Why does the Army not assist SAPS in doing weekly inspections and raids of these area's, its ridiculous that these guys are coming into our country to cause problems.
It would be good training for them and hey are paid to protect the Citizens of RSA!
Punlic relations strategy is a beautiful thing
Eloquent, the cop, rare in South Africa!
Shame on anc because this people that you are arresting are ur brother from another country n they are illegally..
Don't waste time. Drop them down those mineshafts and pour concrete on them and burn them once. If you need help call. I'm available.
Find creative ways to get in - Someone who continuously seek to instigate chaos in our country yet people still think he is some kind of leader.
The consequences : 👆
Also in khustong the police must cam
South African this is not about Julius malema is about crime vukani niyeke inzondo bopha isigebengu noma siwuhlobo luni kucace singabgeni namuhla kusasa siphumile
Why our journalist so poor in thinking can u really ask about kingpins among these guys who are digging for gold in these mine . The kingpins are staying in affluent suburbs you will never see them near mine nor these zamazamas know them
They don't have work why don't go to drug dealers
With those cellphones we might find out who was behind the planned attack and who is funding these animals
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Main problem is leadership of Africa, these African leaders protect each other and poor countrymen suffers
the answer is stop voting for corrupt leaders
Show his face. Why are you hiding the criminals faces💩
Good job 👏🏽
Why are they not showing faces of this criminals. They are still protecting identity.
