@TheBMA_SA Any update on the bus driver that picked up the 32 illegal immigrant passengers? Has he been charged? Has the bus owner been charged? When are they appearing in court?

Today, 07 April 2026, @TheBMA_SA Commissioner Masiapato continued with the return-leg of the Easter operations at Beitbridge Port of Entry. Several unaccompanied minors and adults were intercepted in the nearby bushes while awaiting a facilitator to transport them to a bus. The unaccompanied minors were handed over to the Department of Social Development for further care, while the adults were deported back to their country of origin.
As we mark the 3rd anniversary of the Border Management Authority this April 2026, these interventions reaffirm our continued commitment to secure our borders for development.

@TheBMA_SA So you just let undocumented and illegal immigrants pass through the gates?

BORDER MANAGEMENT AUTHORITY RESPONDS TO INTERCEPTION OF UNDOCUMENTED FOREIGN NATIONALS IN THE FREE STATE
The Commissioner of @TheBMA_SA Dr Michael Masiapato confirms that the bus recently intercepted in the Free State Province was processed through the Beitbridge Port of Entry on 02 April 2026, in accordance with all prescribed procedures.
On arrival at the port in the early hours of the morning , the bus entered through the North Gate where standard port operations were executed.
All passengers, 43 in total at the time of processing, were required to alight from the bus with their luggage to undergo mandatory screening processes.
Passengers were subjected to BMA Port Health screening to identify any health-related risks, while their luggage was scanned for any smuggling of illicit goods and items such as bulk medication or contraband in line with established security protocols.
Concurrently, the bus itself was searched to detect any undocumented individuals.
The driver presented a passenger manifest, which included the names and passport numbers of all individuals on board.
Each passenger proceeded to immigration counters where they presented their passports to BMA immigration officials.
All documents were verified and found to be legitimate, and the passengers were duly processed and granted entry into South Africa in line with applicable immigration prescripts.
The BMA confirms that it is in possession of the full list of passengers who were processed at the port of entry, all of whom complied with entry requirements of having valid passports, visas and all had sufficient number of days, remaining out of 90 days, to enter South Africa.
The driver of the bus was also found to be in possession of a valid passport and a legitimate cross-border permit, and the vehicle was processed in accordance with regulatory requirements.
The bus is operated by a registered cross-border transport operator, Rimbi Tours, which is among the regular transport services utilising the Beitbridge Port of Entry.
The BMA wishes to emphasise that security measures at the Beitbridge Port of Entry remain exceptionally stringent.
The port is currently operating under heightened surveillance, including the deployment of drone technology, as well as the presence of multiple Commissioners overseeing operations during this high-volume period.
These measures are specifically designed to prevent illegal crossings and detect any irregular movements.
The Border Management Authority therefore cannot account for any additional passengers who may have boarded the bus inland after the bus had departed from the port of entry.
Information received from the Free State authorities suggests that the bus may have been overloaded at the time of interception, indicating the possibility that undocumented individuals were transported after lawful processing had already taken place.
The BMA reiterates that it operates across 71 Ports of Entry nationwide and within a 10-kilometre radius of South Africaโs borderline, in line with its legislative mandate.
Movement beyond this zone requires continued compliance with immigration laws and is subject to enforcement by relevant law enforcement authorities in support of the work of the BMA.
Transport operators are once again strongly warned against transporting undocumented persons within the country.
Such actions constitute a violation of immigration laws and will attract serious consequences.
The BMA remains committed to safeguarding South Africaโs borders and ensuring that all persons entering the country do so in full compliance with the law.
We will continue to work closely with provincial authorities and law enforcement agencies to during this busy Easter period.
The BMA Commissioner, Dr Masiapato will be in Beitbridge from tomorrow, the 5th of April until the 8th of April 2026 to monitor all operations and deployments on the ground.
As we prepare for the return of the Easter operations in Beitbridge, for the @TheBMA_SA it is all hands on deck with teams deployed in collaboration with various entities and stakeholders for a smooth operation.
