Member of Parliaments Transport Portfolio Committee, Makashule Gana has called for enhanced security measures at the countrys airports, particularly at the O.R Tambo International Airport.
This follows a serious security breach at OR Tambo after a passenger boarded a flight to Ethiopia with two training hand grenades in their checked luggage.
The breach which was only discovered upon the passengers arrival at Bole International Airport in Ethiopia has led to Airports Company South Africa ACSA terminating its contract with Aviation Coordination Services ACS.
ACSA claims that the breach occurred in the Hold Baggage Screening area managed by ACS.
Gana says all they want is enhanced security at OR Tambo.
