Who or what is trapping them?

Why use taxpayer money to rescue thieves, let them dig their own way out!
Los hulle daar hulle steel die land se goud en kry die kingpins agter tralies
They don't want to come out. They waiting for you to leave. And the community is just as criminal. Aiding and abetting. What a joke.
It is not like they are trapped they decided not to come let them enjoy the consequences
It's sad…very bad..
But why ? Why not close up the holes
Now the taxpayers will pay for this again. This is becoming BS.
That crowd must be deported too
Now why is that if illegal mining going on for so long this mines is not operational to south africans and how many millions is lost for south africa. Some heads in goverment must roll because it is out of control. So many jobsfor south african MR Ramaposa and all members in goverment need to be jail period.
The next person owehlayo makanxibe icamera – them people seem to know the people underground and probable work with them so trusting their word without evidence ha.a …. of the view that the person who went down kwa today should have been equipped with a camera
Does are the low rank criminals. Who are buying the gold?
They must work together with who if we may ask, their families must help them
Botman is lying, yesterday Carte Blanche told a different story.
How do these people know that the majority of Zama zamas are South Africans ?
Stop voting ANC!!!
Guys asikhipheni I anc embusweni plz ayikho le Phela
How do you rescue people who never needed rescue.
Police knows they have no capacity to carry out an operation, instead they went ahead anyway now we have dead bodies.
Police you stop food and supplies to starve people therefore take responsibility you kill people.
Is this the solution.
The police dont have plan B
Surprised to see community going to rescue..
They were warned to come out and chose to stay underground though…also the police ddnt plan for unforeseen circumstances.
South AFRICA is under siege
