Foreigners under threat in Cape Town

By Mandisi Tyulu

06 September 2008


Western Cape disaster management team says any threat against foreign nationals is illegal and unacceptable. This follows the distribution of a letter in Khayelitsha by the Zanokhanyo Retailers' Association. The letter “orders” Somali shopkeepers to close their shops while “all matters regarding their existence” are being discussed by what is called “the business, political and community leadership”. The provincial government and Cape Town’s administration says police are investigating a charge of intimidation.
