"Only in SA will a criminal be called to justify themselves. At least they didn't disappoint you. There is nothing to justify."

@BEEAYWHYOO questioned:
"How do you criminally charge someone who committed identity fraud at "a day old"? Lawyers in the house, please πππ"
@Nkwe_ asked:
"Can interpol arrest her and her parents and bring her back to SA?"
@Odezuluigbo_1 exclaimed:
"South Africa πΏπ¦ is the only country in the world that charges an infant for a crime committed by adults. Lazy, crazy and foolish country!"
@Vincent62343509 asked:
"If it was not for social media, this useless department would have been quiet. How many millions of others are sitting with similar fraudulent documents, which you have failed to even investigate, stop, or charge?"
