Heist! South Africa’s cash-in-transit epidemic uncovered – Anneliese Burgess

Heist! South Africa’s cash-in-transit epidemic uncovered – Anneliese Burgess: From the horror of the 2006 Villa Nora heist – in which four security guards were burnt alive in their armoured vehicle after a ferocious fight-back against highly trained mercenaries – to the 2014 robbery of a cash centre in Witbank, where a gang made off with almost R104 million after impersonating police officers, Heist! is an impeccably researched exposé of an endemic crime phenomenon that some analysts warn could bring South Africa to its knees.
