Cape Town's gang wars - #BBCAfricaEye #Shorts
“This is the bullet hole… where he slept.”
Cape Town is one of the wealthiest cities in Africa - but it is also the country’s gang capital.
Over the course of just three months last year, police reported 263 gang murders on South Africa’s Western Cape - 79 of those were children, killed by gunshot wounds or stabbings.
One of the most volatile communities in the country is Hanover Park.
