It has been around the news that there was an African gang in Melbourne, posting a threat to all Melbournians. But does this gang ever exist? Some politicians, State and Federal, said it did.

We interviewed the SBS Senior Producer of Dinka Language, Ajak Deng Chiengkou to shed us some light about the issue. He said it was more a settlement issue rather a crime issue
