Pictured left to right are South African police constable David Hlobo, five arrested illegal miners, all from Lesotho, and police inspector Velaphi Dlamini. The Odendaalsrus police were proud of arresting this gang inside a working mine-shaft at a local gold-mine during a raid. Chinese triads provide the guns and pay for the gold, thus posing huge dangers to mining operations. See http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/265104
