This makes my blood boil.
I was in Cape Town the day another heist like this happened, standing in my parents' garden. We heard the shots and ensuing chaos as the drama unfolded just over a kilometer away.
I was so impressed at the police work that had apparently traced the men from a cell phone dropped at the scene.
It seems that the police and prosecutors involved in this case were less competent.
Now these guys will doubtlessly kill again.

I question everything. Some of my questions might be profound. Others based on something trivial I see...
About Me
- It is the question
- I'm difficult to put in a box: I am passionate about my career and work hard at it - but I'm mad about sport - and theatre and art. I travel a lot. I've been lucky enough to work in New York, London, Stockholm, Paris and Jakarta amongst other places. But I'm largely Jo'burg based at the moment.

I'm exactly the same.
Someone I work with has a brother who came across the heist in Edenvale two weeks ago. He saw the BMW used in robbery lying on its side and got out to help, not realising what was happening. The next thing he had a gun against his head and was forced to lie face down on the tarmac as the gang finished their robbery.
The law tends to favour the criminal in this country. It makes my blood boil, too.
