In this explosive episode, Paul and Gerard sit down with retired Colonel Tollie Vreugdenburg — former head of SAPS Counter-Terrorism — to expose the chilling truth behind one of the most dangerous domestic terror plots in South African history: the Boeremag. This white supremacist militia planned to bomb the country into civil war, assassinate Nelson Mandela, and launch a violent coup. But thanks to Tollie and a small team of investigators, South Africa narrowly avoided its own 9/11. Inside the episode: Who the Boeremag were — and why they were more dangerous than you think “Document 12”: the plan for a white ethnostate Bombings, betrayal, and a doomsday that almost happened How the police cracked the plot just in time Religious prophecy, survivalism, and apocalyptic racism Why this case still matters today About our guest: Col. Tollie Vreugdenburg led the SAPS investigation that brought the Boeremag down. A veteran of Limpopo’s Murder and Robbery unit, he was central to exposing the coup plot. He also contributed to The High Treason Club, the definitive book on the case. 🎥 Watch the full episode on YouTube: Profiler Africa 📅 Premiering Tuesday 10 June, 8pm CAT Support & Follow: Patreon: patreon.com/profilerafrica YouTube Memberships | Super Likes | IG | Twitter | Facebook Website: plotshiftcrime.co.za 📩 Questions for Gerard, or the team?
