This documentary hurts, i dont want to be rich, i dont want to be a millionare i just want pregant women to get medicine, kids to have proper education. I want my friend who is a teacher to go for holiday with his wife one day.

As a kenyan, one of the most disturbing thing is that Musalia Mudavadi who was a major beneficially of the Goldenberg saga that almost crippled the Kenyan economy in the 90s, is now the third most powerful person in Kenya. We have ourselves to blame because we keep recycling the same corrupt politicians.
The illiteracy in the comment section is disheartening. when a country is sanctioned, they have to resort to other means to sell and bring foreign currency into the reserve bank. When Iran was sanction and could not sell its oil, Norwegian and Greek smugglers were brought in to smuggle the oil out of the country and bring in money to run the country. How do you expect Zimbabwe to sell its gold when it is sanctioned? The investigation does not show that the money is going into the ambassadors pocket or the president's pockets. yes the smugglers are stealing from the government but to talk of corruption when the government is only trying to sell its gold and bring money to the reserve bank shows that many African commenting in the comment section below are illiterates. they simply do not know how the world works. Zimbabwe has to sell its gold and smuggling is the only way and that is not corruption as it is not going into private pockets. the guilty here are the smugglers who are exploiting the situation to steal from the government. Lets see what the remaining episodes hold.
Wtf do expect them to do when zimbabwe has been sanctioned so zim has to do wat they got too we got resources but nowhere to sell it so it is wat it is

These syndicates are all over Africa. Our resources are pilfered to far-flung nations as we watch, cheer on the thieves and fight each other. Zimbabwe is just a tip I'd guess. The rot in my beloved Kenya might be worse💔💔💔
Incredibly good journalism. The BBC used to make documentaries like this when they had journalists rather than lame activists. It is good to see someone keep the tradition of journalism alive.
Yes, they have been nr 1 for years now. I can't remember any recent Western investigative journalism that was groundbreaking. But we must celebrate the diversity of this gold mafia don't you think LOL
And to think we are one of the poorest countries in the world when we have so much gold and other natural resources! This is insane. I'm heartbroken. 💔
As a South African I have a strong feeling that this is also happening in my country and I think it happens at a larger scale it's just not exposed yet.
I doubt it, we are not like Zim, the reserve bank is not controlled by the government only Sars is and if there's somthing going on I bet you a million pounds it will be gordahn, mantashe and mabuza. Even though south africa looks defenseless trust me there are alot of good independent law inforcement in our country crimes like these will occur even in the words best protected government. Look at the U.S

As a Malawian, I'm heartbroken to hear that these selfish and greedy mafias have their illegal networks in all African countries including Malawi. I'm very heartbroken to see these heartless people enriching themselves by exploiting poor Zimbabweans and Africans in general. Thank you Ajzeera for this documentary that exposes such evil activities, please don't stop here, help Africa prosecute these evil people.
you should be really be heart-broken of yourself because of the assumption you had that these guys in Government are somehow Angels... In actual fact they are Devils preying on the ignoble citizens. Be vigilant

As a Zimbabwean my heart bleeds and cries for my fellow Zimbabweans. This just broke my heart. We spend the whole day without electricity, no clean water and the list goes on. This is just heartbreaking💔💔💔😭😭
As a zimbabwean citizen just want to thank the Al Jazeera for this documentary. Some of us are out of the country looking for money to survive because our country is something else now no proper medication, no jobs, no roads and a lot things are shorting in zimbabwe but people are busy stealing the money that was support to be helping in building our economy. This is so hurting

@Simon Does do some thorough research before you decide. Politics are done with the head. Not the heart. That's why Africans get the short end of the stick we chose political leaders based on how they make us feel not their performance on the job
As a Zimbabwean what breaks my heart is the fact that we are living in foreign lands far from our families just to make ends meet. OK they are stealing, but atleast fix the country in the process. This is so heartbreaking
Am a Kenyan and I can tell you for free that Kamlesh Pattni is a crook. I remember when we were kids he orchestrated a big scam called the 'goldenberg scandal' that cause Kenya to lose an equivalent to 10% of our GDP then. It's heartbreaking to see that he's still free to mastermind other scams all over Africa thanks to our weak systems
I think its an African problem that is what is causing South Africa to collapse with all the load shedding and pot holes. I think South Africans you are in a worse situation because the worst is still to come. It will no longer be a thing from next door. We need to come together as Africans to fight this thing. It’s really not just a Zim problem. Aljezeera is on its way to SA and worse things will be exposed. Its reality
Great Video ❤️ I love it 😍 I don't understand why youths and adults are still poor when they have a smart phone and great opportunities on how to make money💰
As Zimbabweans this is heartbreaking💔To think we have so much gold and not even one hospital has a cancer machine and there is no money to pay civil servants yet gold is being smuggled in a day light 😭God will hear us Zimbabweans lets all register and vote
Your hatred is misplaced. Leadership is a direct reflection of the society that breed it! Perhaps you should direct your hatred towards the prevailing social values and the education system that inculcates no sense of responsibility or common purpose/goal.

Wonderful journalism. Congratulations to the team. Please keep exposing such diabolical activities that keep Africa in deep poverty, at the expense of greedy so called politicians and leaders.
Not that long ago I've been doing research about gold producer in the world. The biggest 3rd is Switzerland, UK, and Hongkong. Then I dug deeper to where this three countries get their gold from (because you know, there's no way Switzerland, UK, or HK own their gold mine). But they tend to ship their gold to one another (for example Switzerland get it from HK, UK gets from Russia and Switzerland) but Hongkong gold majority came from UAE. Then at last, I finally get to find their major supplies, which is came from DRC, Ghana, Uganda, Mali, SA. I'm glad you cover this story. Just kinda sad we can only see it but can't make differences.
This documentary just broke my heart l ended up crying while watching , Zimbabwe is so reach but it poorly managed we must come together and fight corruption 💔
Amazing and bold journalism. This is simply sickening knowing the people who are suffering are poor people who struggle to put a meal on their children's table.
This documentary is a thorn to the heart. To also think the late SB Moyo was a shareholder of one these gold smuggling companies and his then wife now widow is the head of the Anti corruption Commission in Zimbabwe. The syndicate runs sooo deep then. It's just painful😖😖
Interesting observation. The fox guarding the hen house. This will not be solved by talking. They are setting the country up for anarchy which is sad because Zimbabweans are a peaceful people.
@@ozdube3801 yeah and those people were not even scared like you and me 😞 they would do or die march the streets for a change but you and me the moment we try a protest the army and police will be after us and guess what we will run for our lives and never go back 🙄🙄
As a citizen of Zimbabwe I am heartbroken, I never knew that in my country there is people making a lot of money like that yet our parents, brothers, sisters n kidz don't have medicines in hospitals 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
We are sending money back home, wen billions being stolen should be used for Zimbabwean employment and Healthcare. Looking at the figures being robbed/ gold, We could be better that the NHS.
Go to the rural areas to your relatives you mentioned above, even in Harare and tell them that it's Zanupf doing that and you will be lucky if they don't try and kill you for saying that.We are going to elections and they will vote for such a system again and they will see you as a devil.I wish Smith was there and say minimum of 5 Olevels to vote because the majority are illiterate and decided what happens because to us because there are many.NOOO
As a young Kenyan, it is disheartening to witness all this unraveling . Corruption and dubious short cut ways taken by the political elite to get rich have contributed to the decline of the economy. Africa needs to stand up against the political class.
😢 God sees all! God Bless you. Corruption here too! It is just packaged with a pretty bow and more sneaky! satan never tires unfortunately! Unconditional love wants peace and prosperity and rest and family time for all and we get exhausted by 24/7 evil!
As a Zimbabwean living abroad, I'm shook!!! Couldn't find no sleep after watching this. These are the end times indeed. Much respect Al Jazeera, this is more than gold!
This is not for only Zimbabweans and Kenyans . This is a wake up call to all African youths to wake and desist from being politically influence and fight for the future of this continent...We owe our children alot😢
It's a pity to see ourselves being made fools and slaves by our own people to whom we have given authority and they shamelessly trade it to for dishonor. Shame on us all
Imagine if all this money was legitimately handled, we’d be one of the richest African nations. Hospitals have no medications, equipment etc and people die daily yet the elite few are reaping the benefits. I hope this video gets shared by our citizens far and wide and may we put an end to these criminals when we vote.
I am presently writing a book that talks about Africa’s inflation and poor economy. Thanks for this foresight! Although this does breaks my heart even more than what I imagined. I really wish for an exclusive to learn more in raw details.
As a Kenyan, I always knew we are corrupt to the core! Any association with Pattni is mind blowing corruption! No wonder the guy has not been seen in Kenya for a while! But it hurts though! Across Africa we are suffering because of smuggling. Can’t even imagine what takes place in Congo.

@@betterdaymotion You did not get. Most of these guys are actually not bringing in the 2foreign currency to the local economy...they bring it expand their means of moving out more gold...most of the profits remain out of Zimbambwe.
@@betterdaymotion Do you know the environmental impact of this mining. If gold leaves and little money comes back we may as well leave the gold in the ground for future generations. Rivers, underground water being polluted for what.
@@betterdaymotion You are accusing people of illiteracy when you are failing to make key connections. Do you really think Government officials are that clueless that gold leaves the country and some forms are filled to say X amount of dollars came in when only a tiny fraction comes in. There is top officials enabling this chicanery with some fat offshore accounts. The white guys, the Indian guys are bad news but they are not doing it in a vacuum. There has to be local handlers benefiting at the expense of the citizens. Most people are against sanctions but the issue here is sanction busting to benefit private individuals on the back of national resources.
This is not just happening to Zimbabwe but most of African countries . AFRICA needs to open her eyes and work together . As à zambian my heart is bleeding. Thank you Algazeera
Le them come to Zambia and do something similar. In the papers, they argue and put up a show at Parliament. At night, they wine and dine and hold secret meetings at homes and even abroad.

U can't
Incredibly good journalism. The BBC used to make documentaries like this when they had journalists rather than lame activists. It is good to see someone keep the tradition of journalism alive.
Yes, they have been nr 1 for years now. I can't remember any recent Western investigative journalism that was groundbreaking. But we must celebrate the diversity of this gold mafia don't you think LOL
Bbc AFRICA does good program's..
I am tired of AFRICA.
And to think we are one of the poorest countries in the world when we have so much gold and other natural resources! This is insane. I'm heartbroken. 💔
As a South African I have a strong feeling that this is also happening in my country and I think it happens at a larger scale it's just not exposed yet.
I doubt it, we are not like Zim, the reserve bank is not controlled by the government only Sars is and if there's somthing going on I bet you a million pounds it will be gordahn, mantashe and mabuza. Even though south africa looks defenseless trust me there are alot of good independent law inforcement in our country crimes like these will occur even in the words best protected government. Look at the U.S
Of course
Yes it is happening, where do you think the Gold extracted by the Zama-zamas go to
This is part 1: I’m sure and I’m waiting for the part 2 to come out. I’m sure SA one is in there too.
@@fakey4995 yes ofcourse we will be there our country is corrupt you think the zama zamas arnt going to be listed I'm just begging for it to show us minister gordhan and mantashe so they can be fired
As a South Africa my heart is broken cos I know for sure this is also happening here.
A hole digged already
Oh, for sure!
Watch part 2. Touches on SA
Most definitely
You must bring back the umlungu into parliament . There are too many tsotsies and skebengas in power. Vuka!
I've lived in Zimbabwe. This is incredibly depressing to see. These people are already incredibly wealthy, but their greed knows no limits.
I’ve always heard from my Zimbabwean friends how corrupt the government is but seeing this puts things in a whole different context.
I shared the same sentiment 😢
why is it a crime to be rich?? don't you want o be rich yourself?? The real question is how you get rich - good way (ends in good) or bad way (ends in bad).
The illiteracy in the comment section is disheartening. when a country is sanctioned, they have to resort to other means to sell and bring foreign currency into the reserve bank. When Iran was sanction and could not sell its oil, Norwegian and Greek smugglers were brought in to smuggle the oil out of the country and bring in money to run the country.
How do you expect Zimbabwe to sell its gold when it is sanctioned? The investigation does not show that the money is going into the ambassadors pocket or the president's pockets. yes the smugglers are stealing from the government but to talk of corruption when the government is only trying to sell its gold and bring money to the reserve bank shows that many African commenting in the comment section below are illiterates. they simply do not know how the world works.
Zimbabwe has to sell its gold and smuggling is the only way and that is not corruption as it is not going into private pockets. the guilty here are the smugglers who are exploiting the situation to steal from the government. Lets see what the remaining episodes hold.

As a Zimbabwean I'm ashamed of what we are. And this kind of corruption is now deep that even our children think being corrupt is the only way to be rich.
When is episode 2 coming..?
Where exactly is the corruption here. I only notice a smart government fighting illegal sanctions brilliantly!
That's what Ukraine was like. Until they realised that corruption is keeping the whole country poor.

Some of us are out of the country looking for money to survive because our country is something else now no proper medication, no jobs, no roads and a lot things are shorting in zimbabwe but people are busy stealing the money that was support to be helping in building our economy.

As a Zimbabwean what breaks my heart is the fact that we are living in foreign lands far from our families just to make ends meet. OK they are stealing, but atleast fix the country in the process. This is so heartbreaking
That’s true, home is always the best place to be. Heartbroken to our Africa being destroyed by these selfish people
From this documentary please tell me exactly who has stolen what and how the theft has been carried out. I'm waiting.
Am a Kenyan and I can tell you for free that Kamlesh Pattni is a crook. I remember when we were kids he orchestrated a big scam called the 'goldenberg scandal' that cause Kenya to lose an equivalent to 10% of our GDP then. It's heartbreaking to see that he's still free to mastermind other scams all over Africa thanks to our weak systems
Kamlesh is stealing even from the same government he is supposed to help break sanctions.
As a South African this is so hard to watch, Zimbabwe's need to come together to fight this government and prosecute all the perpetrators involved
The exact words I was uttering yesterday with my colleagues
SAns also involved in Zims money laundering crimes 😔
It's all African countries my dear
I think its an African problem that is what is causing South Africa to collapse with all the load shedding and pot holes. I think South Africans you are in a worse situation because the worst is still to come. It will no longer be a thing from next door. We need to come together as Africans to fight this thing. It’s really not just a Zim problem. Aljezeera is on its way to SA and worse things will be exposed. Its reality

Wonderful journalism. Congratulations to the team. Please keep exposing such diabolical activities that keep Africa in deep poverty, at the expense of greedy so called politicians and leaders.
Not that long ago I've been doing research about gold producer in the world. The biggest 3rd is Switzerland, UK, and Hongkong. Then I dug deeper to where this three countries get their gold from (because you know, there's no way Switzerland, UK, or HK own their gold mine). But they tend to ship their gold to one another (for example Switzerland get it from HK, UK gets from Russia and Switzerland) but Hongkong gold majority came from UAE. Then at last, I finally get to find their major supplies, which is came from DRC, Ghana, Uganda, Mali, SA. I'm glad you cover this story. Just kinda sad we can only see it but can't make differences.
This documentary just broke my heart l ended up crying while watching , Zimbabwe is so reach but it poorly managed we must come together and fight corruption 💔

Interesting observation. The fox guarding the hen house. This will not be solved by talking. They are setting the country up for anarchy which is sad because Zimbabweans are a peaceful people.

Walal inaga kuwa kabadan ba inalajoga oo ina dhamaystayba but finding this now it' hurts 🤕 how this Mafia Gold 🪙🥇 was stealing form us and our brothers of Africa 🌍
I totally agree with you, corrupted government is our problem.
I am in tears. This is sad. Criminality must end. When will Africa realize the true potential. Thank you Aljazeera for exposing this
I feel sick to my stomach. How can these Zimbabweans be this cruel to their fellow brothers and sisters, heartbreaking🥺

They are greedy and tribal

The saddest part is seeing the state of the locals on ground who are digging in the dirt and selling it to these corrupt cartels. Barely surviving to put a meal on the table.
Indeed, very sad.
