So for me, March and March, I've got lots of respect for the work that they do, and I encourage them to keep doing it.

I mean, they've obviously got ICE there, which has done a lot of work in America in terms of getting foreigners out, and they've been accused of being far too muscular in forcing foreigners out, getting it wrong a lot of the time.

But would you favour a kind of a similar ICE-type intervention, I suppose, in South Africa to deal with?

I've never had interest to study the actual manner in which the Americans are doing.

But for me... given an opportunity to get illegal foreigners out, I'll use every measure available to me within the confines of our legal system.

I will not hesitate and I will not show any mercy, but I will do it within the laws.

You know, I just did an interview with someone who was telling me about Mozambique being killed in Alexander some years ago.

Now I said, why must I separate one? For me, murder of a South African or a legal foreigner or whatever, it's murder.

So why do you want to single out this one? Why don't we talk about the 60 people being murdered in this country every single day?
