The City is checking its CCTV footage to see if it can identify who was responsible for defacing the mural of Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu on Longmarket Street in the Cape Town CBD, Mayco member for safety and security JP Smith says.

“The person responsible for writing, ’Ek is ‘n k*ff*r’ , on a mural of Archbishop Desmond Tutu in central Cape Town will have been filmed in the act by the City’s security cameras.

Cameron Dugmore, leader of the opposition in the legislature, said: “Racists, sexists and the intolerant must have no place to hide. “I know our Archbishop Emeritus will no doubt forgive those who committed this shameful act. Our task as a province and country is to intensify our fight for non- racialism as the bedrock of our society, but in addition must embark on an intensive anti racism campaign.”
