  1. It's always the case with intercepted illegal foreign nationals, the fabricate stories that seems to be very true in order for them to convince the law-enforcement agents. It obvious that every illegal Immigrant from Zimbabwe came to South Africa for three major reasons, either economic reasons; crime related reasons and political asylum seeking reasons. Small percentage of tourism and other luxurious reasons are out-numbeted by the three. reasons mentioned above. What surprised us as South Africans is, they viz, Zimbabweans wish us bad luck, they pray we experience the same suffering they are in despite they use South Africa as their only source of lively hood. Imagine one hates the person that is feeding him/her.

  2. Those people know very what they are doing is criminals,they are busy lieing to the journalist about funerals it's what most of them use to say,they are criminals and SAns are tiered of them with their excuses to jump border illegal like they do

  3. Only Zimbabweans can solve their own problems..running away won't make them go away but worsen them.. Look now these 1s are going to miss their mom's funeral and get a criminal record, including unimaginable trauma from the whole experience…😏

  4. The answer is that they know they don’t need passports because being caught like this hardly happens. And also they know that being undocumented in SA you can still leave your best life – even access chronic medication. And that even now – he has been caught, but it’s not the end. And more importantly boarders are for South Africans not everyone else.

  5. Zimbabweans are afraid of their own government, but are fearless of South African government. Could it be that RSA is the nice guy? The one that always gets taken advantage of. The sore loser that can't stand its ground. The playground for everyone, the one for the streets.
