Outside the Cape High Court hundreds of Joe Slovo residents filled the streets today in protest of not being evicted to Delft.
This follows after Thubelitsha Homes a institution of the national department of housing sent the community to court applying for a court order to evict the residents to Delft.
Judge President John Hlophe who led proceedings was asked by Advocate Budleneder representing the Joe Slovo community to be careful if he should decide to evict 20 000 people.
The advocate also raised concerns of obstructions leading to serious offences being taken by the community.
Mzwanele Zulu Joe Slovo task team leader was very positive at the proceeding smiling and dancing with the community.
“I’m very positive and I’m happy I’ve heard much of these discussions in court, I can see it and I’m hoping for the good now actually,” says Zulu.
“We are waiting for a positive response and negative response, but our main aim is not to leave Joe Slovo,” he said
The court proceedings have adjourned for lunch time.
Thubelitsha Homes were not available for comment.
