In eMqhekezweni, a small village in the Eastern Cape, women are on edge. Once the second home of former President Nelson Mandela, it was known for its close-knit community living in relative tranquillity. But now it’s plagued by a sinister balaclava-clad gang running a ruthless extortion racket targeting women. At dusk, men arrive on horseback to terrorise the villagers, demanding that young girls and women of all ages pay them a protection fee or risk being raped. Most in the village are poor, unable to pay their tormentors. Yet help from the police is kilometres away.

My heart just broke for the granny and her grand children. What trauma to be attacked at night and tomorrow night it may happen again while the police are busy with paperwork. The ANC do NOT care about their own people. 🤬🤬🤬🤬
Citizens honestly cannot be blamed for taking actions into their own hands when police officers fail to protect the citizens. That's what's even more upsetting: The fact that criminals get away with blatant crimes meanwhile civilians get punished for self-defense.
Gwede Mantashe did call us lazy for waiting for service instead of doing it ourselves so I am sure he is ok with us doing it ourselves
I have never heard of anyone getting punished for mob justice. so there is that.
Yes. Truly shocking where we at having to deal with such crime. And seems criminals afe being defended not citizens.
At 09:30 Gavin says the community sought help from the Royal household when the police hands were tied in terms of helping them. When King Buleyekhaya Dalindyebo of AbaThembu administered justice for his people, he was arrested and sentenced to serve time. ANC has failed the people.
Remember this during the elections
If only the people could see how the anc has failed the country!
Then those ppl must stand against the police as well. They are Then committed to criminals not the ppl
The police are in on it. They are the enemy. Must be dealt with.
As a Zimbabwean I appreciate the only program in the region that does investigative journalism. I remember this happening in Zimbabwe and it was never covered
The Herald didn't cover it?
@@Mo-yd8xc The Herald doesn't practice journalism. It is the propaganda arm of Zanu PF that's its only purpose.
What cities villages did this happen in and what was the time period?
Thank you for highlighting this issue. Cele is all talk no action!!
Pratt in the hat
I wonder what Cele would do if this was his granny or mother or sister 😢
Thank you guys I am a resident in Mthatha and this has been happening for the longest of time ... Our government is not hiring more police officers imagine 1police station I'm sure there are 2 vans only to cover all those villages , I don't blame the officers that are there I blame those that are in power and I think we should give another party a chance
The other grand crime in this story is a desitute person paying these funeral policy companies R210 per month off a state pension
Where are the brothers, uncles and fathers in this village when all of this is happening 🤔
They know the police can not or will not protect them so it makes it easy for them.
This is happening in more than one village.
This is just heart breaking
What has gone wrong with our beloved South Africa?
Our leaders have let us down. There's no law and order. No consequences for the perpetrators.
The ANC
@@siphiwem8272 They have let the country down. 😔
Everything
Well 3rd world behavior kicked in, remb that used to be tamed by Apartheid police state.
How can a president be so rich, when the people of his country are so poor?
When 250 million rand is stolen just to build Inkandla and enrich a few... How can you be shocked ..
JOHANNESBURG - Police Minister Bheki Cele said the almost half a million rand the government spent to send him and his assistant to watch the Rugby World Cup final in France was budgeted for. In a recent parliamentary reply, Cele revealed the Police Ministry spent just over R33,000 on his travel costs.
ANC from the top is a disgrace. [Cyril Ramaohosa down].
We spend more than 120 million rand on the minister and deputy salary a year with each minister earns close to 2 million a year for them to still want more
Plain and simple, they don't give a s..t!!
South africa under the ANC 😢🚮😡
Enkosi Gavin. Over the last few months you have brought the plight of our villages and small towns to the front. Enkosi.
That woman said "if my son was here, this would not be happening." First job of father, brother or uncle is to protect. Move a couple of father and uncles in and that community will be safe again.
This has been happening for a while.i was there 3 years ago and heard about this taking woman at night There is no law in the Eastern Cape.
Thx again Beke Cele for a lawless country
The Pratt in the hat
Where are the Xhosa men when all this evil is happening?
They are probably working in major cities where they have another family. The women and children must fend for themselves most of the time. It creates soft targets for these gangs.
Most of us from there have been swallowed by the migrant labour system and ones left behind are mostly suffering from severe alcoholism to even care
My thoughts exactly!!! What has happened to the Xhosa men. They should be ashamed of themselves. Absolute cowards for letting their women and children suffer like this. I am so disgusted.
Instead of solving such cruel terror in our black communities, the ANC is worried about terrorist arabs of Gaza. The ANC is the worse thing to happen to this country. I need to report the ANC government that's led by Ramaphosa to the International Court of Justice
So much truth in your post! If the ANC government can stop stealing......there would be enough resources to properly assist these communities that struggle to help themselves
Negligence of citizens by the government should be criminalized I support your statement.
I didn't want to bring that up but I'm glad you mentioned it. If they are not getting a back hand from it, they will not lift a finger to assist the most vulnerable citizens. Rama and this government is a disgrace
How does the journalists know this but the police do nothing.
The police are garbage
Another failure by the ANC!
SAPS is a moribund institution, safety is not to be outsourced to the Government, we are responsible for our own safety now. Sadly these towns lack the resources to secure themselves.
This is what black men have made of this country. While Bheki Cele is monitoring alcohol flovour our women are in constant danger... 💔 They'll still vote ANC....
We should be like America total abortions since 1973 is 63, 459, 781.
Putting SARS cameras in the tabaco factories whilst we need body cams on our cops
If the police can't keep up then communities can't be held responsible for their actions to handle the issue .
Seems vigilantes do a better job then some officers.
Again it's up to the Ppl of SA to govern the country as the Government simply can't handle it .
This is heartbreaking to watch and listen. What have women done to men for them to hate us this much? 💔💔
This is a truly heartbreaking issue and story. This is a matter of evil, Godlessness and lawlessness. I understand that you're upset by this and so am I, but you're perpetuating a gender war and bias. You may not have meant it that way, but that is what you're doing and making a group of people feel guilty will not make them want to protect you.
Everytime i wake up south Africa is getting worse we are a country with no direction please SAPS show us who you are !! you are the law
What a sad stat SA is in. I luv the wild coast. Amazing kind people a truly beautiful part of the world. Breaks my hart. Over seas now as I can't see myself returning 😢
To all the Carte Blanche team.Happy and prosperous new year to you all
This is heartbreaking.
Let’s vote accordingly guys😢 it’s enough
Praying for justice to this community 🙏this is sad 😢to see and hear this from elderly people.
Something must be done about this heartbreaking 💔 actions.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
In front of your grand kids…. What has the country come to…
This is so heartbreaking 😢😢😢😢😢.
I cry for my beloved country😢
And then when people decide to take the law into their own hands they are wrong.
This is heart breaking 😢
I cried whilst watching this 🥺🥺😢😭😭😭
Gangs in the villages?!!Its horrible to watch our country deteriorate.
Bheki Cele has never been a police officer. He'll never understand the needs of officers in places like these.. Our country is in shambles and the Mandela Family doesn't care at all. They arrested the King for taking matters into his own hands and, thus, gave the criminals immunity
Help us oh Lord!
Lord please help us... Our government needs to stand up
No, this government needs to fall!!! 30 years of mismanagement
I am coming home in April but I despair. How much worse can it get before there is nothing left? Is South Africa done for?
Yes. Yes it is
Bheki is a bad joke as a minister
As sad as it is to say, this would not have happened in the apartheid days - these criminals would have been arrested or killed within a day or two. The poor villagers are left to their own devices just like us in the city - there is no law enforcement in SA besides bribes collected from Dealers and illegal immigants
Genuinely want to know, how old are you and are you white or black?
Killed without a trial? Sounds like the apart hate days.
@@Lion72320 I am 51 years old and Indian/Black
@@Lion72320really? Can you answer those questions?
ANC well done to keep the country safe.
Our police force are lions without teeth.
Because of democracy rights
We are going for national elections, these people will have to vote wisely if they want change. Based on the last elections it’s more likely that ANC is going to win with more than 50%. Empty promises are just going to continue.
This is a nightmare.
Breaks my heart💔
This can only be solved by private entities. Mercenaries. Vigilantes. Whatever you want to call them.
this is a norm in many remote villages in south Africa
Should never have been in power ..no idea how to run a country
...
For a man to be so heartless & ruthless is beyond the scope of my understanding. That poor old lady.
It’s so heartbreaking 💔.
Don’t understand why we don’t invest in drones
Maybe the extra money for cops needs to be spend on the youth…our nation is in big trouble as the youth has no work or hope or vision.
heartbreaking💔
What kind of evil is this yoh....when a state fails 😢
The worst kind
This is painfull to watch those people must be given to the community to deal with.
What have we've become?😢
Citizens need to realize. We all are in a contract with our government whereby we pay tax and obey the laws in exchange to live in freedom in peace. If a government fails to do that the contract is broken
we all know the cops are involved in this mess, they know who is doing it and they are paid to look the other way. If a criminal leaves blood on the crime scene, what more do you need to catch him?
I have no words
Heart breaking 😔
It’s sad 😢
So sad....😢😢
These rural people need the Equilizer to come sort out thier problem once and for all. Maybe they need to contact him.... It is so sad being so near the living area of Nelson Mandela
In 1985 yes a long time ago, my partner then wanted to go the the Hole in the wall. Well, we did the trek and my last words were "The next time I see this place it better be from the air" Nothing has been developed in that area since I was there but the Fatcats can hold an IMBIZO. That land is barren with no development and where do all those people go not because they want to but because they have to. A big city that just swallows them up. Disgusting
These are all family land. And they will not allow the government to touch their land.
Take note that this can happen to anyone in this country. PLEASE USE YOUR VOTE CORRECTLY 🗳
Could it be theTop cop might be getting a kick back?
😡😡🤬this is enraging, people must go and vote come elections, we need such terrors to be distinguished, unfortunately the only remedy is through adequate governing....
I'm watching from the UK and this is so disgusting
I am shocked.
It's true if the district does see fit that the police station should get more officers or vans then their hands are tied. 😢
This is very sad.
And then after hearing all of this, my government must tell me about human rights!
It's time communities take care of these people themselves cause these people are known to the community....police don't help
Very sad, the police there dont seem to be interested
I dont know what ANC is waiting to happen before they put someone with a spine to run SAPS
Beyond heatbreaking...
This is terrible and heart breaking
The problem with South Africans is that we expect politicians to solve our problems. The truth is, politicians stay in well-guarded expensive estates, and do not care about your safe.
The character of a nation ...
The police in Rural areas should get specialised off road bikes. It will help with the terrain.
Very sad, my heart does out to the Gogo. I hope she finds some healing.
Baphila kabuhlungu abantu abahluphekayo eEastern Cape bawo 😢
Anc must be proud ..our grannys and sisters cannot sleep in peace while you live in mansions with bodyguard.....remove that excuse of a police minister
They are afraid of their own people in goverment, but keep on voting for them. Shame!!
Then SA wants to tell Israel to stop the war against terrorists.
They will still vote ANC that treats them this way. Who's to blame then?
Where is the men of the villages and why can the royal family not insist that the police give oor man power to the Bityi Police station!
Seems like they could do with some armed Afriforum guys to help keep the village safe
Well, one thing I will say, is that I doubt very much that Afrikaans men would just abandon their women and children to suffer like this. The men of that village should be ashamed of themselves. People can say whatever they want about Afrikaans people, but the men are fiercely protective over their women and children. They would never allow this type of thing to continue.
Vote for change 2024.
We can kick the ANC out of government in 2024. But how long will it take to fix the mess they made?
The king was jailed for dealing with such people
If you do the same things you will have the same results
Carte blanche please completely hide victims and do not show parts of their faces like the first survivor.
We live among satanists
