It is believed that “for every wrong done under the sun, there is an equal and opposite right to pay.” One would reasonably question whether anyone is being punished for the widespread criminality in our nation, which includes carjackings, identity theft, and internet fraud. Have you ever considered viable alternatives to the traditional method of incarcerating individuals, given that it appears to be ineffective? The people of Malamulele, Giyani (Limpopo) appear to have taken matters into their own hands in dealing with con artists, perhaps believing that the law does not offer them enough protection. The residents of Malamulele recently met their version of justice by successfully apprehending a lady who was wanted for card fraud. The victim of a $10,000 swindle came forward to identify the alleged offender to the assembled audience. Adding insult to injury, the woman was discovered in possession of numerous credit cards. She tried to get away, but her getaway car had left without her. At the hospital, she was accosted by an enraged throng that had pursued her. People in South Africa have expressed a wide range of opinions online in response to this tragedy.
