In tonight’s Current Affairs feature, we’re taking a closer look at the alarming surge of drug mules being intercepted at South African airports, particularly OR Tambo International. Just this past week, a South African woman was arrested for smuggling over 110 drug bullets, the highest number discovered in recent years. This incident highlights a growing trend, with at least 14 drug mules arrested in the past few weeks alone. But what drives individuals to take such extreme risks, and what does this say about the state of drug trafficking in the country? To help us unpack the issue, we’re joined by Shaun Shelley, Founder of SA Drug Policy and a respected researcher in the field.
