A Vanderbijlpark mother, Keneilwe Shalaba, is in custody after allegedly selling her two-year-old son, Kutlwano, for R75,000.

In November 2024, Shalaba reported her child missing, claiming he was abducted by three men in a silver VW Polo.

However, investigations revealed inconsistencies in her statement, leading to her arrest on November 19, 2024.

She faces charges of human trafficking, conspiracy to commit robbery, and making a false statement to the police.

Shalaba appeared in the Vanderbijlpark Magistrate’s Court today, February 12, 2025, for a bail application.

The investigating officer testified that the state has a strong case against her.

Shalaba, who is pregnant with twins, claimed her son was snatched from her in November.

Trump signs executive order imposing sanctions on ICC officials

On February 6, 2025, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC).

The sanctions target individuals involved in ICC investigations concerning U.S. citizens and allies, including Israel. The measures include asset freezes and travel bans for ICC staff and their families.

This action mirrors a similar stance taken during Trump's first term, when sanctions were applied to ICC officials over investigations into alleged war crimes by U.S. forces in Afghanistan.

The ICC, established in 2002, prosecutes individuals for crimes such as genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity.

The United States, along with China, Russia, and Israel, is not a member of the ICC.

The recent sanctions have drawn criticism from human rights organizations, which argue that such measures undermine international justice and the court's ability to hold perpetrators accountable.
