Mike Bolhuis, private investigator, security consultant.
Often speaking about private investigators bring up romantic TV images of fast cars, fast women and Hawaiian shirts.
The harsh reality cannot be farther from the truth in South Africa. Mike has seen the worst that the nation has to offer. Drugs, kidnapping and violent crime.
With a soft spot for animals and victims of violent crime he is often a last hope for those failed by the SAPS.
We get a glimpse of the man who made fighting crime his mission in life for the past 35 years.
He comes and shares his story with us.
