Movies Police Trapped 118 Illegal Miners Underground For Months W.O. Food & Water

South African Rescuers Pull 36 Corpses, 82 Survivors From Illegal Gold Mine

Gruesome footage of dead bodies emerged from illegal miners trapped underground in Stilfontein, South Africa


Reuters 14 JAN 2025













South African rescuers have pulled out 36 dead bodies and 82 survivors from a gold mine deep underground in two days of operations






POVERTY...




Police said on Tuesday the survivors would all face illegal mining and immigration charges.


Police began laying siege to the mine in August and cut off food and water supplies in an attempt to force the miners to the surface so they could be arrested as part of a crackdown on illegal mining.

A Reuters team at the site saw rescuers carrying one man on a stretcher, while a group of other men, one of them emaciated, sat on the ground surrounded by uniformed police officers and paramedics.

Footage issued by a miners' rights group on Monday had shown dozens of corpses and skeletal survivors inside the mine, which is located about 150 km (93 miles) from Johannesburg in the town of Stilfontein.
