133 alleged victims of human trafficking apprehended by South Africa police

The police in Limpopo, South Africa, stopped and questioned 133 people who they think might have been trafficked.

According to the police, a group of kids and grown-ups were traveling in 10 small buses. This was reported by the public broadcaster SABC News.

“We asked all the people involved, like Home Affairs, to come and see where they are from. ” “In most cases, these people will probably be sent back to their own country’s border,” said Hlulani Mashaba, a spokesperson for the province.

This is the third time they have made an announcement like this since last weekend.

On Sunday, officials in Limpopo said they stopped over 400 kids who came from Zimbabwe and were not with any grown-ups.

Zimbabwean officials said that there were only 124 children, and they denied that there were more.

Save the Children organization disagrees with South Africa’s statement that the children were being taken there to be used for bad purposes.

Police said they saved 33 people from being trafficked in a different place in Gauteng province.
