In November last year, a ten-year-old girl was found during a routine traffic roadblock, squashed inside the luggage compartment of a long-distance bus. She had been smuggled from Zimbabwe into South Africa under extreme conditions for several hours. But her case isn’t unusual. In this months-long investigation, Carte Blanche unravels alleged cross-border human trafficking and the shadowy figures known as transporters who are making it all possible. Undocumented foreign nationals are lured to South Africa from numerous African countries - many of them ending up on the streets of Johannesburg North. Thousands of Malawians are lured into the country on the promise of a new life, some smuggled by long-haul bus companies and funeral parlours, only to be forced into sex work and manual labour. In an even more sinister twist, many of the victims are coerced into taking out funeral policies on themselves once they reach South Africa. It’s an unusual demand but a guaranteed income as the transporters cash in on vulnerable undocumented foreign nationals.

Southern Africa's probably are very easily solvable. Get rid of ANC and Zimbabwe's ZANU PF loses its support that has helped it overturn the people's will in all elections since 2008. With ZANU of the map Zimbabweans go home. With a new government in Zimbabwe the borders start doing their job.... no more Malawian migrants coming in via Zimbabwe.
One thing i don't get is 5500 everyone is saying the same thing, that makes it that its a cartel running it
@@vicmwafcorrect
Why was this man not arrested with evidence that is clearlyincriminating???
@@thisandthat1767 Why has no one been imprisoned after Zondo Commission? Why is no one behind bars after Eskom saga? Why is no one in prison after all the Home Affairs scandals where fraudulent visas were given, e.g to the Guptas, why has no one gone to jail for their landing planes at thst airbase
I’m always amazing at how Carte Blanche can find these guys but SAPS can’t.
SAPS is probably well aware of them, but they on the payroll as well unfortunately.
Informers trust media mroe than police
Exactly. That's a hornets nest
There is more money in child trafficking than in drugs 😢 wake up
Why doesn't the police go to this place in Randburg everyday and monitor what's happening. There are no consequences.
When carte Blanche does more than the government.
Very alarming, which just makes me think that this government actually wants this to happen for whatever demented reason.
Can't they go with the police? 😭😭😭
Derek's legacy is in great hands. Keep up the amazing work.
My heart dropped when I saw that little girl. The thought that human trafficking is happening in our backyard is disheartening.
It was so traumatising to watch that. Imagine the little one who was actually in the situation 🥲
Joshlin still missing
Don't even want to think what could have happened to her? 😢
The fear that poor little girl must have been feeling, that people could be so full of greed is disgusting and sickening
There's a global war on women and children. How did we come to this?
As a father of 2 daughters this is sickening... Whoever partake in this illicit business, Your day of reckoning is on the way..
Sick
It is for this reason that I'm scared to have kids. It's horrible out there
This is inhumane
@@mossfairy3060 Your wonderful illegals you praise all day.
Wow, South Africa just gets worse and worse.
Lack of vision from the African leaders is just killing us
Abahambe 2024
Say that again😢😢😢😢
It's rampant worldwide, not only South Africa.
Lord please I am on my knees, have mercy on the children...I am disheartened. This is a reality hard to accept.
Truth be told, South Africa never had so many Malawians. With illegal foreigners in South Africa, come different types of crimes that the SAPS cannot manage. We are going to have to change government to fully eradicate these illegal foreigners crimes. We definitely need a strong arm of the law. This is not only from Malawi. The illegal Nigerians in this country working in salons were promised jobs in South Africa.
Helen Suzman Foundation and other human rights people will fight this. They seem to encourage illegal immigration and protect it at all cost.
This scares me even more to think that even our own children arent immune to these horrendous crimes.
Malema calling for open borders should show people how little he cares for ordinary people.
How? please explain how opening the borders would not help with this situation?
@@wisemanthabobonang4369are you dumb?
Malema must fff.. back to Zim from where he came and quick😎
because traffickers wont have to smuggle/hide the victims going across borders🥱🥱🥱 one less risk for them@@wisemanthabobonang4369
Malema is a crazy lunatic. He is probably involved in human trafficking amongst many other criminal actions.
- That goes to people hiring domestic workers who are here illegally
- Restaurant owners who are benefitting from cheap labour
- Home affairs employees who are selling documents to these people
- EFF leadership who sees nothing wrong with porous borders, that even their leader said it on record that they should find creative ways to enter South Africa
- Helen Suzman organization that is protecting the ZEP beneficiaries that was not supposed to happen in the first place
- Not forgetting the border post police
All these people have a hand in all crimes, hijackings and murders that are related to illegal immigration
You spitting facts....
Imagine how many politicians & elites are even involved in this. Surely it goes much much deeper.
Bingo
It`s a global syndicate...
No elites are involved, it’s the rot at border crossings that allows this to happen.
It does, there are underground tunnels all over the world. PizzaGate, Podestas, D.U.M.B.S, Marina Abramovich
Hmmm ja neh! Terrible 😢
Our country is a mess! This is scary stuff man and thanks to Carte Blanche for the great work!
😢😢This is exactly why we should vote ActionSA!!!!
I agree
ANC needs to go ASAP
Agreed!!!
True.
It is much bigger than a political party. It is a worldwide billions of dollar business!
100% correct dear South Africans we need change and the time is now
@@antheapayne9416
We don't care if it's worldwide or not. We DON'T want it happening here in OUR South Africa.
Thank you once again Carte Blanche for exposing these criminal elements and fighting crime
That's what ANC Gov done, no job creation, lawlessness crimes allowed🤬
Thanks to the ANC of Ramaphosa. Our country is a criminal heaven.
Bheki Cele is aware of this,the intelligence is aware too and our political leaders are aware. We are on our own.
Nothing in this country shocks me...
True
No rule of law, no consequence. Imagine Carte blanche can find these guys but SAPS can't. Broken nation.
This is a hard watch… The atrocities against children that happen in our country is heartbreaking and sickening.
What is more concerning is that none of the top 3 political parties are taking a harsh stance on illegal immigration and trafficking. It even took international agencies like the FBI to alert South Africa that we are a playground for human trafficking.
M-NET and DStv!!!!Pls open the Carte Blanche slot/time to all packages so we don’t get to watch snippets but can actually watch the entire thing 😩😩😭Heaven Help Us, LORD JESUS we need you 🙏🏾
Shocking ! I really feal for that child that was placed in a box in the luggage compartment. How she must have sweated and not had any food or water. How can one do that to a child. So glad that she has been placed in the right hands of her father.😢
The love of money is destroying humanity.... another brilliant delivery by Gavin hope you are watching your security
Shocking. Cannot imagine what level of fear that poor girl had to experience.
Morena boloka sechaba sa heso, o fedise dintwa le matshwenyeho 🙏🏽🇿🇦
Jesu oa pholosa,
Boloka tumelo ea hao
And they call us xenophobic. Voetsek
I felt that “You’re lying!” 😢
Human trade is worse than it was 400 years ago. What happened to humanity?
These are the last days. I'm not surprised, heartbreaking nonetheless.
Unpopular statement: Stay in your own country, we have enough problems.
Your statement is incomplete. It should say "Stay in your country, make your leaders accountable, we have enough problems"
@@muzih.ngwenya9768 I love THIS!so profound GOSH
Amen to that.
Hellen Zille praised illegal Zimbabweans, Julius Malema says foreigners must get creative ways to get in the country. We need leadership that puts south africans first
The only ones that speaks sence is ff+
And EFF cann't be that.
I come from the bad old apartheid days when everything was working and there was law and order in this country. I was a member of the Commando system and we patrolled those borders (Lesotho, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and to a lesser extent Swaziland) daily. I spent 1 to 3 months per year patrolling those borders as part of my compulsory military service in this country. The best compliment we ever received was from the human traffickers themselves when they stated in an interview that the trafficking was not possible when the SADF (note not the SANDF) Commando's patrolled those borders. They simply could not get past us by illegally crossing the borders. Those days we complained about the waste of time, the heat and being away from our families but today I can honestly say that I am proud and thankful for the contributions we made to the safety of this country and for preventing these horrible practices by the human traffickers.
South Africa a playground for our so called brothers and sisters when we complain, we are apparently xenophobic...This is just of the many horrific things that are done in our country but we can't express our grievances as citizens because our so called brothers and sisters end up being victims who show no accountability for their actions.
South Africa is indeed one big jumping castle, Sodoma and Gomora
Not even a jumping castle mntase because loadshedding. So we can't even afford to keep it inflated
@@nthabix 🤣🤣🤣so true
sana
This needed to be exposed.
Thank you Carte Blanch and to Emma wow Thank you for what you're doing for these vulnerable people. It's heart breaking utterly heart breaking.
instead of the SARS police sitting at airport why don't they go to this WELL known trafficking site and sort it out - SO Agree SAPS cant find or deal with broad daylight criminals but Carte Blanche can 👏🎬
Feel so sad for that kidnapped girl. It is unbelievable how one can shove a child into a box without food and water. Totally scary how humans have no feelings
It is all about money
Lord watch over us please.❤
You call them humans???
Foreigners are doing as they please, why is the government allowing this to happen?
This is sickening!!!! I’m so angry at our government for allowing this nonsense to happen in our country!
I think it’s time they let us fix our country ourselves! Really pathetic man😭
Asina country sizihlalele💔💔💔😭😭😭
Drinking Tropika & smiling "you will give me R5500" indeed this a Half Billion Rand Industry per Year🤞🤞🥺🥺😣😣😰
its sad to see how foreigners do as they please in our country
The ANC itself is a lawless organisation with no vision
Money makes people sick, it's so sad that our world becomes more desensitised by the day, children are collateral damage to the hopeless situations they never asked to be born into.
Lord please keep this country under your wings we not safe
Joshlin Smith and millions of other children are victim to this
Then they unalive the children for body parts and use them for muti/rituals. Disgusting!
My goodness what has happened to this world.. especially in SA..we as citizens have no soul anymore...One day they will caught..as we see the proof on camera.
What a horrific underworld, yet for these operators it's totally normal day to day business.
Only Gayton Mckenzie cares about this. I saw Zille praising Zimbabweans for bringing skills into S.A. If this continues into the next 5 Years. We will have Xenophobic attacks that will be far worse than before. South Africans are fed up about this situation. Politicians are benefitting, the Poor share their space with these People.
Very true, yet the party who is destroying SA gets majority votes every election
Gayton is a wolf in sheep's clothing... How can a criminal be trusted...
He is the only hope for south Africa @@anthony58936
@@anthony58936who better to catch the criminals than he who knows how they operate.
Helen Zille sentiments are just a typical white people sentiments who are enjoying the benefits of cheap labour like it was during apartheid.
This is horrific.. this poor child!
My heart breaks for that little girl 😢😢 how traumatic for her
This truly breaks my heart honestly. Our government needs to do more on our security. A child but in a box really now…lord knows what would’ve happened if there was no Guards patrolling that day. It is really sad 💔
Corruption in South Africa is on another level here.
The irony of having a bible scripture on the wall behind Josiah cannot be ignored
@carteblanchetv I get to witness the same thing at O.R. Tambo Int airport. People from all over Africa and some part of the middle east are smuggled to South Africa via Swaziland. I fly to Swaziland on a regular basis and I see this all the time. It started during Covid. You can ask the airport stuff that works in the international side at gates where you need to catch the busses to plane and they will tell you about this. The morning flights between 6am and 7am
Every Carte Blanche episode is shocking but this?!😢 Right in our back yards. How horrifying!
We need a government that will be tough on crime. Governments of Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi needs to have their leaders removed. They are causing SA way too much problems
We have also contributed by siding with that vile Zimbabwean government..
Thanks for making the public aware of this
Thank you very much Carte Blanche
The audacity of people coming to this country and blatantly breaking the law.
The sad part is our foreign policy is so flawed..the nationalities that steals the cup from our flawed immigration rules are Malawians, Ethiopians and Zimbabweans .Pity one brush will paint all..South Africa our land 😢😢😢
Right next door. Randburg looks so dodge!
Am afraid to say this bus station is getting bolder it's been around for a couple of years.
I don't like that place.
African leaders must held accountable. Why would their people leave. Now they are being trafficked
Ohw nkosi yam, yintoni na lena 🥺🙏🏾abantwana
Goven my heart is broken. Thank you "carte blanche team" for your wonderful work 🎉
you are doing the lords work
Government how come gents but really how come... private companies are more active than you... please answer us her...ANC must go
Very sad indeed, 😢some of our African men and women are heartless. How do they sit and eat or sleep knowing that they sold a person to be sacrificed. Can they do this to their own family😢
This is what happens when there is no law and order in a country... Children and poor people being exploded...horrific and so sad
So demeaning, so inhumane!!!
This is scary 😢
This show is cutting edge that went to private school
This is heartbreaking.
I wish i government can watch this and see where this country is and stop meddling in other countries' affairs and sort this mess out. Our children are being sold for R5500 after giving birth and sacrificing so much for your child. Mxm!!
Another brilliant piece........#carteblanche
Waaau !Gruesome but keep on exposing this Guys.
Well, Malema told them to find creative ways to enter the country, but eff minions will still defend him
Makes you wonder how bad some of these other countries are if being smuggled into current year South Africa is seen as being an improvement.
R5500 = £275 quid. I have no words.
Failed on the border.
One thing I hate of Carte Blanche is that no one ever gets arrested, why cant they set up sting operations along with the relative parties(eg. police etc) to get these guys charged and jailed. After the culprits were being confronted they will still carry on with illegal activities if they are not jailed especially if they are from other countries. They will never respect us
But at least they do open our eyes, these are journalist and you know how SA criminal justice work. just learn from Sizokuthola incident
Carte Blanche is doing the Lord's work. Everyone has their part to play.
Awesome and Amazing
You are doing a great job in this investigation
Poverty is the biggest sin. Work hard so you don’t have to live with such guilt, this behaviour is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable.
Praying for all the babies, toddlers, girls and women.
Work smart rather than hard,
Please give feedback what was done about this sitsuation
Love this new reporter!!
Wish this surprised me but this is south africa after all. The heart of evil beats here.
I'm speechless
This is very very very scary and sickening...but can someone pls tell me why was the smiling man at Matour place not arrested🤷🏽♀️ cause what's the use if this exposure if no arrests are made? Or they arrests these people off camera? Scary to imagine who's six year old was gonna be trafficked and in which conditions were they gonna kive in. But thanks CB for the insight
Horrible we need to join hands and end this bad practise
This is truly sickening
Oh me our Country is in trouble! Change need to come drastically!
18:42 Please collaborate with the SAPS and let’s fix this country
Why can't everyone go back home because South Africans themselves do not have employment. So, how does the government employ foreigners when it can hardly employ it's citizens? And if they are just loitering in public parks, that's a receipt for disaster. Please let them relief South Africa of the service delivery burden. Another reason why our country has become so filthy because people are not properly placed.
South Africa the mampara country strikes again.
It's funny because Clare blocked us on Twitter telling her of dangers of illigal immigrants as she is a promoter of illigal immigrants. She is not the right person for this insert.
Can we have this shown on more media platforms
This shows how poor our police are. If journalists can track these criminals what's stopping the police?
Did you ask this gorverment what all this people doing South Africa? This is too much our gorverment officials are so corrupt and we doing nothing about it.
Then when people start attacking them they will say it's xenophobia and their failed governments will complain about SA.
