Servamus July 2025
People need passports and visas, while goods require permits to cross borders legally. Criminals, however, ignore all rules and laws to facilitate the illegal smuggling of firearms, explosives, diamonds and cigarettes within countries and across international borders. The consequences are beyond financial losses to a country’s revenue. More serious are the lives that are devastated or lost because of these crimes. The July 2025 issue of Servamus explores the extent of these crimes and their impact on our daily lives.
