JOHANNESBURG - A group of men linked to multiple crimes including 11 murders and hijackings are appearing in court today.
They were arrested after a video that went viral a few weeks ago. In the footage, the young men can be seen walking casually through KwaMashu hostel, displaying firearms and firing shots into the air.

The hostel has often been linked to violent crime, gang activities and political tensions. This lead to one hard question, where do the guns come from and how do we keep them out of criminals' hands?
Jenni Irish-Qhobosheane, from the Global initiative against transnational crime spoke to eNCA.
