‘The City cannot continue to repair facilities that have been destroyed by a selfish few. We cannot condone this criminal behaviour. I call on the community to report these persons who torched the facility to SAPS,’ said Councillor @ZahidBadroodien. pic.twitter.com/hfRpN4ua5s It's understood the protest started after law enforcement tore down structures in a newly formed settlement in Makhaza.
“It’s city-owned land that is earmarked for development, it's on our budget. We will be building and get a contractor on site but now they are trying to invade that particular site.”
