Free State MEC for Community Safety Jabu Mbalula, has confirmed that the driver of a bus that was transporting 32 undocumented Zimbabwean nationals into South Africa possessed a legal ID and valid driver’s license.
The MEC has, however, raised concerns that the bus was only intercepted in the Free State after it passed through the Beit Bridge port of entry and two other provinces. Mbalula says collaborative efforts between provinces must be intensified.
“What we know and we have discovered is that when these buses pass the port of entry, they are compliant. It is only after they enter South Africa after that they do the opposite. Reports have confirmed that some of these undocumented men were picked up at Louis Trichardt, Limpopo and the rest along the way.”
