Residents of the Princess informal settlement embark on multiple consecutive days of service delivery and housing protests against the local government in Roodeport. The group blocked roads and reportedly threw stones at passing cars in the fourth day. On the fifth day protesters attacked the home and family of a local resident, looting the house of their property. The group may have shown violent action in the sixth and seventh days, though this fact is not clear. The Right2Know was publicly supportive of the protest action, though it is unclear if they or their supporters were present during the demonstrations. The protesters vowed to continue protests until their "promised" houses were built. Calm was reached on the final day with a promise for housing from the appropriate government ministry. |
