Johannesburg – Twenty-four Ethiopian men were taken to Brixton police station after they were found without documentation, the home affairs department said on Friday.

The men were caught in Braamfontein when traffic officers stopped a 16-seater minibus taxi they were travelling in, said spokesperson Mayihlome Tshwete.

Three of the 24 were believed to be minors.

“The driver of the vehicle is in custody, as charges are being finalised.”

Tshwete said the department would investigate whether the men were victims of human trafficking.
