Justice. Is. Served! Thank God! 🙏🏽

Why r they given harsh sentence to this baas or massa

A well deserved prison sentence.

Matanyula is waiting for him, there's no white privilege there.

wonder what his ancestors did to locals 350 years ago...they need to check out his family tree

Scumbag....

Well done it’s time life sentences are handed out for this sort of GBV in SA - this young woman’s family lost a much loved daughter their pain will never go away, just like so many other families who’ve lost daughters through intimate partner violence.

Elvera_VA Bring back the death penalty

Brilliant! I hope he does not get parole.🙏

Is he back? I thought he fled to Brazil…

Pity the death penalty is no longer legal

Where's the R250m coke stolen from Hawks offices ?

When are they swooping 6 trillion from Phala Phala Farm?

Liewe land R400m, lees ek reg? Nou waar kom dit vandaan? Ingevoer en indien ja hoekom het ons doeane dit nie opgetel nie? Hoop nie dit is by die Polisie of Hawks gesteel nie want dan is dit mos 'inside job'?

Now he is going to be the girlfriend

Pakistanis for sure Involved

Only a matter of time before it disappears 👀👀😂🤣😂

Hawks will deliver to the rightful owners

Well done Hawks 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

How long before it disappears from the evidence room, and goes back to the 'rightful' owners

The drugs gonna go missing

lemme hold a brick

Drug dealer’s kids are about to get kidnapped again 🥱

They always report on arresting the middle man but never hear of the arrest of the cocaine owner.

The crime and criminality in this country is harrowing. Its scary

Fantastic

Are the 'three men' illegal immigrants though?

Let's celebrate post prison sentence.

Someone is gonna get kidnapped then the cocaine will end up to its owners

They will kidnap kids and these cargo will go missing.

Hawks stole R400m cocaine from drug traffickers. That's correct reporting in this case.

Some one's kid is about to be kidnapped.

QteeLee_toptier The Hawks will do the right thing and return it to the owner, knowing very well that if they don't the owner will soon send hitmen.

Its gonna disappear in police custody.

WHEN YOU SEE HEADLINES LIKE THIS, JUST KNOW THE CRIMINALS ARE SOUTH AFRICANS

Only for it to be stolen again

Those 3 men are likely from Europe. They were gonna cut it and pass it down to Nigerians. We have a huge immigration problem

All three 'suspects ' released on bail. Drugs missing from police station. Bheki Cele vows to arrest drug dealers etc.

The hawks are about to drop the ball again

But it still will be stolen inside Hawks office, cause Hawks and criminal syndicate are friends.

I bet my last damn dollar, foreigners are involved

Those bricks will be on the streets by this afternoon and the three men will be in Sandton by noon

That cocane will remain... And get back to the owner 😅😅
