A 38-year-old woman was arrested after she was found with explosives at the Beitbridge border post, police said on Monday.

Police spokesperson constable Maphure Manamela said the woman was arrested during a search operation on Sunday morning.

"The bus that she was travelling in had just crossed over when it was directed to the searching bay for inspection," Manamela said. Manamela said during the search, 200 units of superpower-90 blasting cartridges were found wrapped in plastic bags in her luggage. "The origin and destination of these explosives will still be [established] by the ongoing police investigations," Manamela said.

The woman is expected to appear in the Musina Magistrate's Court soon on a charge of possession of illegal explosives.

I love EFFSouthAfrica but for an open border policy I don't agree with them!!!

Politician must Not fool us &put our lives in danger while they hv got too much security in them we can't allow criminality 2b the the order, of the day those who genuinely seek employment must b separated from the murders and thugs only those who follow the law will b accepted.

If myanc & EFFSouthAfrica with the stance of opening our borders without 1stly engaging other national country on good measures of operating this massive exercise it will harm our country more than Good 1st must hv biometric fingerprints &border control management first..

Then the EFF is asking for an open border policy!
