- Plainte
- Basotho nationals had gone to Zambia to buy goods. On arrival they are detained at the border by RSA authorities saying they should indefinitely SARS to evaluate the goods and the brand owners who will check if the brands of goods e.g Nike shoes are fake or original. If fake they confiscate their goods bought with lots of money. They closed the border and knocked off and left them in the taxis they were in. No food, and no toilets opened for them to help themselves. South African shops sell fake new brands in thier shops, e.g fake nike takkies. Why do they treat people buying from a SADC region like this. Why are they creating technical barriers. These goods which are not stolen but bought are only passing through South African land. Please help our people. There can't be an African free trade agreement and on the other hand Border gate employees at a border between Mahikeng and Botswana on the south African side detain people indefinitely and knock off
