The Numbers Gang is a crime organization that originally started as an African nationalist organisation with one of the most fearsome reputations in South Africa. Although they were founded in KwaZulu-Natal, it is believed that they are present in most South African prisons.[1][2] The gang is divided into groups or camps named the 26s, 27s and 28s or the other non gang members called 'Frans' partially meaning no number.[3]
