Crime Central SA - How The Fancy Boys Changed Cape Town's Gangland
Between August and September 2025, Cape Town endured one of its bloodiest waves of gang violence.

At the centre of it all, one name kept surfacing: the Fancy Boys. In this episode of Crime Central South Africa, we investigate how this so-called ‘second order’ gang rose through recruitment, defection, and ruthless expansion — disrupting the fragile balance of Cape Town’s underworld.
