Not week goes by in South Africa without an assassination. In 2022, the Global Initaiyive against Transnational Organized Crime recorded 141 assassinations in the country. And that is almost undoubtedly an undercount give the limited sources of data. Find out more in our new report by GI-TOC analyst Rumbi Matamba. https://globalinitiative.net/analysis/assassinations-targeted-killings-south-africa/

For more than a decade, #SouthAfrica's iconic #KrugerNationalPark has faced a relentless onslaught of #rhino #poaching. But today its greatest threat is internal #corruption, itself a symptom of a breakdown in trust, staff cohesion and professionalism within the park, coupled with deeply entrenched #OrganisedCrime syndicates. https://enactafrica.org/research/research-papers/landscape-of-fear-crime-corruption-and-murder-in-greater-kruger #Africa

While other hunts in East Anglia slowly collapse Essex and Suffolk Hunt was the one (until now) that seemed untouchable. Big respect to Suffolk Against Fox Hunting, @SEHuntSabs@twitter.com and other groups who have stood up to this crime gang 🦊👊

But earlier this year, the network of #blockchains that underpin the game’s virtual world was raided by a #NorthKorean #hacking syndicate, which made off with roughly $620mn in the ether cryptocurrency. https://on.ft.com/3EnlcsS #crypto #crime #OrganisedCrime

Hi all. Time for an #introduction. I'm an ex-journalist (although, there will always be ink in my veins), now working as Director for East and Southern Africa at the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organised Crime. More here: https://globalinitiative.net/observatory/esa_obs/. Previously I was at TRAFFIC, the international wildlife trade monitoring network and Africa Check, the continent's first political fact-checking website. I'm the author of the book "Killing for Profit". #OrganisedCrime #IllegalWildlifeTrade
