Unreported World: South Africa: The New Apartheid

Series 2, episode 0

Channel 4's critically-acclaimed foreign affairs strand goes to South Africa, where a huge rise in illegal immigration from Zimbabwe and other African states is behind an increase in racism and xenophobic violence. Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy journeys from the Zimbabwean border to one of Johannesburg's most dangerous quarters where officers routinely use plastic bullets on the streets as they round up suspected illegal immigrants.
