Chidimma Adetshina withdrew from the Miss South Africa pageant in August 2024 after questions arose about her citizenship. Investigations revealed her mother, Anabela Rungo from Mozambique, likely stole a South African woman's identity in 2001 to obtain documents, preventing the real holder from accessing basic services. Home Affairs announced plans in October 2024 to revoke their IDs and travel rights after they missed a deadline to respond; the case went to the Hawks for fraud probe, with Rungo briefly detained in 2025. The ongoing saga highlights immigration frustrations and the lasting harm of identity theft.

The clash happened around 12:30 a.m. near border marker 151/2 in Tajikistan's southern Khatlon region, where troops spotted the men from Afghanistan's Badakhshan province during searches. The group ignored surrender orders, opened fire, and were neutralized in the response, with authorities recovering rifles, a pistol, ammo, phones, a radio, and a boat. No Tajik casualties occurred, and this fits a pattern of at least five deadly incidents since November 2025 along the 1,350-kilometer frontier, amid rising concerns over cross-border threats despite calls for Taliban action.

Key Takeaway

In the dead of night, Tajik border guards faced down four armed intruders who crossed from Afghanistan and refused to back down.
