Rhino Poachers Found Guilty in Eastern Cape

[BRICKBURN]

Three members of the Ndlovu Gang have been found guilty on 55 of charges relating to the poaching of 13 rhinos in the Eastern Cape over five years. Presiding judge recounted the physical and circumstantial evidence which linked each of the men to most of the 13 poaching incidents. Jabulani Ndlovu, Forget Ndlovu and Sikhumbuzo Ndlovu were arrested at Makana Resort outside Makhanda in June 2016.

This is great news!

The big problem is that this does not address those that are behind this. Those corrupt officials that are usually involved and those that are shipping the ill gotten harvest out, usually to the far east and making massive profits.

We just have to hope that these successes can be increased and life for those supporting this trade can be made really difficult!

Here's hoping the sentencing is in line with the nature of the crimes.
