Man this woman is gorgeous. I hope her company reaches even greater heights

South Africa is a beautiful and vibrant country, but the crime rate is appalling...

[@bluecouchpodcast24]

South Africas crime is not different from crime in Baltimore,Chicago or Detroit..South Africa doesnt hide it's crime stats compared to many western countries who hide it and dont want to look bad while they suffer from mass shootings in malls,domestic terrorism,mass murder and the like..

[@lm_b5080]

tbh its only in certain areas. i lived in france & saw more crime in france then where i'm from in south africa

[@TropicalAntarctic]

​@@lm_b5080certain areas! Car high jacking, cash in transit car, home intrusion and kidnapping ..etc are happening everywhere with no exception

[@Ukie88]

@@lm_b5080not really accurate comparison, is it? Go to SA and check out the reality.

Sound capture and editing is superb for this documentary. Congrats for the amazing body of work.

[@DWDocumentary]

Thanks a lot for watching and for your positive feedback.

[@mloongisy]

Whilst this was a good documentary, I feel like the title is misleading. The focus wasn’t so much on crime in Durban, but more on Nazarene’s story

[@ravenblack7052]

Typical DW click baiting! Seeking the SA haters and then present us with this extraordinary woman who teaches us the spirit of resilience. May she heal and be blessed with sunny days for all the days of her life. What an inspiration she is!

[@lidimo69]

Looking for crime in Durban is easy stories like this live forever...

[@cosmicpuma]

In South Africa, the criminals are amongst the most dangerous in the world, so to get up every day and do what Nazreen, her colleagues and all people in law enforcement do, takes a very special level of courage. Respect. Thank you for this insight, great documentary.

That is not true 😂😂 you haven’t seen the world to say this! If you did you wouldn’t be saying this 🤷‍♂️ I live in SA, came from USA and my friend this is a walk in the park compared to that side. I have never felt afraid here after living thru that! Facts

[@SLKZ-x1q]

@@AwgustRushOfficial 😂it will be a walk in the park if you live in lush, gated estates with private security patrolling all day long, and the only sound you hear are birds chirping away and dogs barking. This documentary was more about Nazreen's story than it was about SA crime and gangsterism. SA is no walk in the park my guy, you just in the right place.

[@AwgustRushOfficial]

[@lindokuhlefaltein9342]

[@카센터-m3t]

I'm deeply struck with this documentary. Having seen how dangerous & difficult to live in Africa throughout news with stats and articles, I felt something with my skin with the video. It was a great opportunity to get a glimpse of what a life in South Africa as a woman is and how arduous it is. Hope she gets treated with all hurts and scars from the past.

[@sanelemwelase]

Nonsense! You think a 33 minutes clip gives u a picture of what a life in SA is? Not all South Africans live in Durban CBD. In fact South African CBDs are dominated by migrants. This video only captures the poor and decapitated parts of the city.

[@MissCriticizer]

You sound ignorant by saying Africa. Africa is not a country and I bet you have never left your country to know Africa has 53 countries

[@shehroz6220]

A strong and beautiful woman. May God always be with her.

[@latifamadu4529]

The man who shot his promiscuous wife needs a full documentary on his story.. I feel sad for him 😢😢

[@UmvimvaniT]

So you think if a man shoots his wife because she is 'promiscuous' that he should be felt sad for? Promiscuity is not a crime; murder is.

[@lusimyer]

Thats just mixed up. Feel sad for the wife. Yes,she cheated (allegedly) but it's no license to kill her!! 😮🥺🙄

[@ngqaphelimchunu4611]

@@UmvimvaniT Yes. He feels sad for the guy. Now what? promiscuity is not a crime but it can be a form of emotional abuse which may trigger a physical response from a man. When people are hurting and in pain they may react a certain way to that. Pain is not limited to criminality.

[@BongieBala]

I love what I am seeing on this video. The idea of having more security companies to assist the police in combating crime is something that our country desperately needs. South Africa currently has one of the highest crime rates in the world, and it is clear that our current security forces are struggling to keep up. We need security teams that are as big and as skilled as the South African Police Service (SAPS). These teams need to be equipped to deal with anything from petty theft to violent crime, and they need to be ruthless in their pursuit of criminals. In particular, we need to crack down on those who carry weapons and use them to terrorize our communities. It is time to take a stand and protect South Africa. We cannot allow criminals to continue to run rampant in our streets, putting the lives of our citizens at risk. By bolstering our security forces and giving them the resources and support they need, we can make our country safer for everyone. I urge the government to look into expanding and strengthening our security services. We cannot afford to sit back and allow crime to continue unchecked. It is time to take action and ensure the safety and security of our communities. Let's protect South Africa and make our country a safer place for all.

[@elix901]

I am always surprised seeing how huge private security is in SA. It’s also huge in our inner city’s in the US the cops fail and the private sector steps up.

[@UmvimvaniT]

You can't even compare it; believe me.

[@elix901]

Those are very dangerous areas in Durban. Every city has these areas.

[@ravenblack7052]

[@KudzaiMukaratirwa]

DW chose a vey poor journalist she was trying very hard to paint her own narrative rather than let Nazrene organically tell her ppwerful story. Quite disappointing....kudos to Nazrene for an inspiring life story and efforts to proetect people.

[@nazreenally]

Thank you I'm glad you noticed this because there was so much more then just this fraction....

[@Siyabongandlovu49]

Love my hometown.

[@deserteagle7032]

Please do a documentary on crime, not an advertisement. That said, Durban used to be one of the safest, most beautiful cities in the world. Then comes the New regime... Drive through any Durban suburb, almost every house has full security installation and private armed response. And these are not the upper class areas, these are the average working class, factory workers, labourers , drivers etc. And then they have to hire private transport to take their children to school. No parent would risk their children walking. It's that dangerous. Locals keep away from the city centre. Migrants have taken over. Durban. And the city council is useless. And the police are useless. Police get into their careers just to empower themselves with bribes. Ask any Durbanite about Durban before '94. In fact Google pics of Durban city centre of old. I love this city so much, yet I hate it

[@loyalfan99]

sometimes i can't tell if this is about the lady or the journo interviewing her.

[@jenpsakiscousin4589]

Didn’t Ian Smith foresee all this back in 1970?

[@kalomboC]

Didn't forsee his own downfall and death 😏

[@mossfairy3060]

He did.. so did de klerk

[@kalomboC]

@mossfairy3060 De Klerk was hardliner but a pragmatist. His winding down of Apartheid and belief that at best SA could be a non-racist society rather than a non-racial society, reflects this

[@esahm373]

Smith was a foreign bigot, who thought that he was entitled to rule over Zimbabweans against their will. His project was destined to fail, only a minority of so-called „Rhodesians“ backed him

[@conceretejungle1150]

They will never get rid off crime as long as they keep scapegoating😮

[@indrankistensamy3084]

it's a case of 'hard livings' on both sides ; Nazreen's experiences growing up and the state of our beloved South Africa. Strength to you Dearest Sister. I hope that the G.N.U can make S.A. a better place for all 🙏. From Phoenix, Durban.

[@FixMyGenny]

In South Africa, the criminals have more rights than the victims...that's the biggest issue. Nazreen is a tough cookie. Unfortunately a lot of us here live in fear of crime, we also have come to terms that police will not help us which gives opportunities for these protection companies.

[@yahyaadams2537]

Only took 13 minutes before she tried playing the sexism card, so glad the woman running the business shut her down. Why do black people almost always have a victimhood mentality? That must be the reason this documentary has sucked so far. Normally this channel does great work, not so much on this one. Half way through and its been the story of one woman and hardly anything about the city. Just poor quality work.
