As part of the protest action, unhappy residents"hijacked" an excavator and dug up a road in the area.
Provincial police spokesperson Col Adéle Myburgh said six men and three women were arrested for public violence on Wednesday. This followed the arrest of another man the day before. The Ikageng community, unhappy about the allocation of stands and houses in the area, embarked on the protest on Monday. They barricaded the N12 road between Klerksdorp and Potchefstroom.
Ofcourse they not worried...a slap on the wrist and free to do more damage.
