Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>South African and Zimbabwean security officials have destroyed a third makeshift footbridge across the Limpopo River that had been constructed some 600 metres east of the official border post.<\/p>\n

Two makeshift bridges, that were used by smugglers and border jumpers, were destroyed in the last six months near the same area.<\/p>\n

The latest bridge was built overnight on Monday using logs, electricity poles and sacks filled with sand.<\/p>\n

Beitbridge head of police, Chief Superintendent Tichaona Nyongo said the bridge was constructed in an area which is infested with hippopotamus and other dangerous wild animals. He said:<\/p>\n

These people are determined considering that area is dangerous for humans at night.<\/p>\n

However, we are not relenting, we are working together with the South Africans so that we suffocate the criminals on both sides of the border.<\/p>\n

\u2026 We will leave no stone unturned as we continue fighting crime. It is advisable for people to use formal crossing points to travel and export\/import goods to different countries.<\/p>\n
