Rwanda : Selling scrap metal linked to social malice Dec 19th 2012, 08:46 Tweet Collected scrap metal   While some children wonder everywhere looking for scrap metal to sell, parents are complaining that children are adopting bad behaviors like stealing. Selling scrap metal is a hot business all over the country where young and old search every place for old metals to sell to business people or directly to recycling factories. Residents complain that children sometimes take useful things from homes like charcoal stoves to sell them as scrap. An example are two children in Musambira sector in Kamonyi district were caught after stealing iron sheets and hoes to sell them, they claimed to have found them in the garbage. Theft of this kind was confirmed by one woman in Runda sector who lost her saucepan following other metallic utensils to her scrap metal seller son.
