2 of 10

Maputo: Chamanculo district. John (with gun) and Tchaka are two members of the Panga gang. They are responsible of many crimes in the areas of Maputo, Chai Chai and South Africa. Armed robberies are the easiest way to make money in a society that do not offer too many chances to find a job. The opening of the borders with South Africa, increased the illegal importation of weapons and the cases of robbery and violence, expecially in the capital.
