@SurferSilverza It’s literally a fish market

[G R I F T Y @GriftReport]

Gangs of foreign women are now cynically using little girls as young as 7 and 8 as decoys to rob luxury designer stores.

Security footage from a Surrey boutique shows a 7-year-old spotting a £6,000 pink Chanel handbag, signalling the adults, then helping hide it behind a plant while the gang pretends to browse dresses.

Another raid used an 8-year-old cradling a doll to screen a thief snatching two high-end bags. Kids have even been sent to steal security tag removers from under the counter.

Boutique owners say these all-female gangs hit weekly, police response is pathetic despite clear CCTV and panic alarms.

A disturbing new “scourge of female Fagins”.

🚨 WOW. The Iranian Islamic regime just publicly hanged 19-year-old champion wrestler Saleh Mohammadi as part of the crackdown on protests

"His execution was a blatant political m*rder."

Iranians who rise up are on the right side.

Rest in peace 🙏🏻

SIU reveals Nigerian rapper Prince Daniel Obioma who crashed his McLaren in Cape Town Last Year, Overstayed visa, Re-entered illegally, and used South African identity fraud scheme

The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) has revealed that Nigerian national Prince Daniel Obioma, involved in a high-profile McLaren crash in Cape Town in March 2025, overstayed his visitor’s visa in 2023 and remained in South Africa illegally before later re-entering the country without a record. His case shows serious failures in border management and movement control systems.

SIU investigators, working with Interpol, uncovered a broader identity fraud scheme involving foreign nationals who obtained South African passports to commit crimes abroad or claim refugee status. The scheme relied on collusion with departmental officials, who allowed unauthorized access to Home Affairs offices, exposing critical vulnerabilities in the country’s immigration and verification processes.

Once inside, foreign nationals used the fingerprints of unsuspecting South African citizens while substituting their own photographs on documents. The SIU recommended stricter controls on passport photographs while the Department of Home Affairs implements its biometric system, aiming to strengthen identity verification and prevent further exploitation of the immigration system.

Six months ago, Nigerian rapper Prince Daniel Obioma, known as 3GAR, crashed his McLaren 570S on High Level Road in Sea Point, Cape Town. The high-performance car reportedly reached speeds of up to 200 km/h before hitting a wall. Obioma was hospitalized following the accident. CCTV footage captured the incident, prompting public outcry over the danger posed by reckless driving, yet no immediate arrests or charges were made.

🕯️"Brother, do you know what a wish is? Just to be among friends."

Mehrdad Moshtaghi, 27. An architect full of life.
Shot in the head in Arak by the terrorist occupying regime.
After 4 days of battling brain death, he is gone.

His brother writes over his grave:
"You left like a hero... but left us with an incurable pain. What a waste of that beautiful smile."
He wished for simple moments. They gave him a grave instead.

Rest in peace, Hero. 🥀
Your "wish" has become our "unstoppable rage".
We will gather again. Not for a funeral, but for the victory you died for.

In the Name of Iran

In western Tehran, a great mosque burned.
For forty-seven years, its minarets echoed with “Allahu Akbar,”
and in that name, Iranian women and men were chained, silenced, and broken.

But in the moment the flames rose, only one name flowed from the hearts of the people—
the sacred name of their motherland: Iran.

For forty-seven years they forced us to speak in the name of Allah.
Today, we rise and shout with one voice: “In the name of Iran.”

A name older than tyranny,
a civilization that is our birth certificate,
a true national identity that has awakened us—
and is finally pulling us out of death, darkness,
and the endless nightmare of the Islamic Republic.

Absolutely gut wrenching from Kayalelitsa as ANC members push Deputy President Paul Mashatile who arrived to do a door to door. This worked in 2005 and which worked for them thinking it will still work got them. Even Zuma has stopped with this nonsense. Deputy President Paul Mashatile was booted out.

You no longer wanted here. You li, you cheat, you buy big mansions with our money.
Get out urgently or we charge you with trespass.

🇿🇦 In rebuilding the National Population Register (NPR), Home Affairs is putting the people over shameless profiteering.

I want to thank various stakeholders – from banks and financial service companies to Cosatu – that have recognised the urgent need to fix the NPR. The service that verifies identities against the NPR in real-time has deteriorated to such an extent that it now fails completely in more than half of cases. This is contributing directly to “system offline” challenges at Home Affairs offices and poses a direct threat to national security.

The good news is that we have already tested a vastly-improved system that reduces the failure rate to below 1%. We are ready to roll it out to all users of the verification system from 1 July. But a better system also requires more investment.

Unfortunately, an outlier has now emerged – an entity that seems determined to put unearned profiteering over the people, regardless of the price our country is paying for it.

When they shortly expose themselves publicly, they will do so by dismissing the low-cost R1 channel for off-peak verifications against the NPR, by dismissing the technology upgrades we have already built at taxpayer expense, and by claiming that they cannot afford to pay R10 for a real-time verification. They will make these claims even though they are worth tens of billions of Rands – a valuation that is presumably partly built on exploiting the underpricing of the NPR. They will make all these claims even as they charge their own clients much more than R1 for a simple ATM withdrawal, or for an EFT payment.

Do not let them fool you. In contrast to this isolated institution, other users of the system who actually want our country to succeed, have already indicated that they will move most of their verifications away from the R10 real-time queue to the new R1 off-peak queue, with minimal financial impact. This is also exactly what Home Affairs wants – because the real-time channel is constantly being overwhelmed by users that have become used to paying almost nothing for it, taking the whole system offline in the process.

When this institution exposes itself, its investors and shareholders need to ask serious questions about the viability of a company that claims its business model is entirely reliant on being unjustly subsidized by the State to the point of damaging the NPR. Ordinary South Africans will then also find out who wants to keep them trapped in long queues at Home Affairs offices.

Make no mistake about it: charging just 15 cents for a verification against the NPR is nothing but a subsidy to corporate profits, at the direct expense of struggling South African taxpayers. The service costs much, much more to provide than just 15 cents – so the difference comes out of your pocket. Those that want to fight reform are effectively fighting to force you to keep transferring your taxes into their pockets. As if that's not enough, they also want you to pay for this subsidy again every time you stand in a queue and Home Affairs goes offline, or when SASSA fails to pay your grant because the NPR verification service is offline.

Even worse, some private users of the NPR have no problem paying third-party providers to provide similar services. These private verification providers charge prices that are dozens of times higher than 15 cents. So, they are happy to pay higher prices to private providers, but not to Home Affairs even when they can see that the NPR is in serious distress?

This situation is deeply disturbing. Some private entities that insist on paying almost nothing to government to use this public asset, want to deprive Home Affairs of the resources required to maintain the NPR and drive it to breaking point. And some of the users that overloaded the system due to cheap prices, then go on to use third-party providers that charge much, much more than 15 cents for the very same service.

It seems they are so used to making money from a broken public system and at expense of the people, that they don’t realise that their profits will evaporate altogether if we allow the NPR to fail. Sadly, this belief that the public interest must be harmed to serve private interests, is a reminder that the instinct behind state capture is more widespread than just one instance.

The principle at stake here, is simple: the NPR verification service must not be funded off the backs of struggling South Africans. This is a voluntary service that Home Affairs provides – not a right. And, on 1 July, corporate users will finally start paying their dues after getting a free ride for more than a decade.

Unearned, taxpayer-subsidised corporate profits - or the people. I know which one I choose, and I invite you to join me as we take a stand against exploitation in rebuilding our public institutions, and our country.
