Ape Trade

10th April 1991 Season 10 Episode 1

Deep in the forests of south east Asia, the shy and endangered orang-utan is the victim of a cruel and criminal trade. Mothers are slaughtered and their babies sold at great profit in an extensive international black market. Inside Story takes hidden cameras into the shadowy world of the ape traffickers; it unravels a plot to smuggle six of the protected apes to the Soviet Union and exposes a racket which sells wild-caught baby orang-utans through a bogus zoo.

Children of God

For the first time, a documentary crew is allowed inside the South African police force. This film is the story of the Cape Town riot unit, the largest in the country. The local black township is in a state of unrest, and the riot unit is busy enforcing a curfew and 'taking action' against residents. Serving officers talk frankly about doing a job that sometimes means killing black people, and express their apprehensions about the dramatic political changes.
