    Vietnamese man found with three rhino horns

    According to The New Age, a Vietnamese man allegedly found with three rhino horns will appear in the Kempton Park Magistrate's Court. That Thai Dung, 25, was arrested at OR Tambo International Airport on 22 April 2012, after the horns were found in his luggage.

    Dung was leaving South Africa when his bags were searched by the Hawks, Airports Company SA officials and the SA Revenue Service (Sars).

    "The man has travelled to South Africa before and he was being closely monitored when he was arrested," Sars spokesman Adrian Lackay said, adding that Dung faced various charges, including contravening the Customs and Excise Act.

    The New Age also reports that, during a meeting organised recently by the Southern African Development Community Unified Traditional Health Practitioners organisation, 500 traditional healers have vowed not to make magic potions to help rhino poachers escape the law. The healers spoke out during an anti-poaching meeting held at the KaMhlushwa community hall, near Malalane (Mpumalanga).
