The Congess of South African Trade Unions in the Free State and Northern Cape provinces will be picketing in front of the Fouriesburg Magistrates Court today.

The union is demanding that a heavier penalty be imposed against perpetrators who allegedly tied up two girls three weeks ago.

The perpetrators had been given a R500 bail.

Cosatu believes that it is a disgrace and shame to the people of the Free State and the country.

The demonstration will start from 9am till 1pm and it will be attended by members of the tripartite alliance and the community of Fouriesburg.
