Criminal gangs posing as municipal employees are allegedly disconnecting villagers in the troubled Maluti-a-Phofung local municipality and demanding up to R8 000 to reconnect them.

The Mail & Guardian visited several villages last week where the alleged electricity syndicates have reportedly been operating.
