The Gupta family is not having a happy Valentine's Day, and the Hawks swooped on their Saxonwold home in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

The response on Twitter to the family's less than lovely day was swift and brutal. Here are some of the funniest tweets.
Looks like the #ZumaRecall will “recall” even the network of #Zuma’s corrupt cronies.
