Wild, wild West(bury)𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝟮𝟴 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯.
It’s a neighbourhood beset by gangs, guns and drugs; Westbury has been under siege for decades. The Johannesburg suburb is home to multiple violent gangs operating with impunity, and community members are caught in the crossfire.

Carte Blanche visits Westbury to investigate why it has become a gangster's paradise.
