Five masked gang members are seen in another video making threats to the target.

One of the men says: “Let me tell you something about us here in South Africa man. We don’t play, we kill.

“You think we can’t get you…? Even in England we can get you my man.”

He continues by saying the target has been talking bout the gang’s members in England. He adds: “We gonna kill you.”

Just waiting for your green light to knock on the door and light up whoever it is.”Video footage of a named Birmingham road is shown in another video, with what appears to be the gunman’s car driving up to a property.
