The Police (SAPS) smashed down a ‘man-made’ bridge, near the Beitbridge Port of Entry, on Sunday.
The destroyed bridge, was built over the Limpopo River.
Police believe, destroying it, is an effort to prevent and combat illicit mining activities and other crimes.
In a statement, SAPS said its Border policing members deployed on the South African/Zimbabwean borderline, found this bridge while patrolling the border fence line.
“The illegal bridge was less than a kilometre east of Beit Bridge Port of Entry and reportedly used to smuggle goods and people into and out of South Africa.”
The SAPS’ Explosive Section, destroyed the bridge, on time, ahead of Limpopo province’s rain season.
