The Gwanda Anti-Stock-Theft Association threw props to cops and farmers for teaming up against cattle thieves after they got back 21 donkeys swiped from Botswana. GASTA Diaspora chairman Victor Vodloza Sibanda said security got way better this year, but rustlers switched tactics by grabbing huge herds and turning them into meat before anyone notices.
The group wants government backing since livestock matters more than crops across Matabeleland South, and it represents the main wealth source for communities there. GASTA intelligence teams work nonstop, tracking criminals who blend into neighborhoods as regular people.
Cross-border cooperation with Botswana anti-theft units helped shut down smuggling operations along shared boundaries.
