  The government has been blamed for the continued deaths of the illegal miners trapped at Stilfontein Mine in North West. Labour union, the General Industries Workers Union of South Africa (Giwusa) said this was a culmination of a policy pursued by the government.

The article from MSN discusses the tragic incident where 13 miners died in Stilfontein, South Africa, due to a methane gas explosion in a disused mine shaft. The government is being blamed for the deaths because it failed to secure the mine shafts effectively, despite knowing that illegal mining activities were rampant in the area. The miners, who were reportedly seeking leftover gold, were trapped underground for several days before their bodies were recovered. The incident has sparked outrage and calls for stricter regulations and enforcement to prevent such tragedies. The community and families of the deceased are demanding accountability from both the government and the mining companies for negligence in mine safety and security.
