Rolex Robbers
The infamous Rolex Gang is still holding residents of affluent Johannesburg suburbs under siege, with many victims so fearful of a return visit that they seldom speak out. The gangs usually follow well-to-do people from shopping centres to their homes, attracted by cars, jewellery and fancy handbags. Carte Blanche gains insight into how the gangs operate and why they remain so elusive.

Nasty Nicotine
It’s one of the most addictive drugs around, on a par with heroin dependence. Over a billion people worldwide are hooked, millions have died from it, yet it’s a legal consumer product.

This Free State town is entirely dependent on its position as a transport hub, situated midway between Johannesburg and Durban. But plans to build a new highway may see the N3 bypassing Harrismith.

Ubuntu Girl
'Ubuntu' means to be considerate and humane, an acknowledgement that we are who we are because of those around us.

Carte Blanche caught up with her on her life-changing adventure.
