Cape Town – The City of Cape Town obtained a court interdict on Thursday preventing the city’s informal settlements’ organisation from holding a march, said mayor Patricia de Lille.
The march was scheduled to take place on Friday.
“I appeal to the organisers of the illegal protest to respect the court interdict,” said De Lille.
She said the order was obtained as a last resort, as she did not want to see a repetition of the disorder last month, when protesters claiming to be part of a service delivery demonstration looted shops and vendors’ stalls, and damaged property in central Cape Town.
