The party was reacting to the discovery of an illegal military camp in Mpumalanga which led to the arrest of 95 Libyan nationals by the South African police service.

ATM National spokesperson Zama Ntshona has attributed the country’s failure to detect illegal activities to the recent greylisting of South Africa.

“The intelligence of this country is truly found wanting in instances of this nature. Last year we were graylisted—that did not really look good for us as a country, and that actually makes this even worse. If you look at the financial action task force that Grey listed us in 2023, one of the issues that were picked up was the issue that there is money that is going out of the country to the tune of three billion, and it is financing terrorist groups.”
