A total of twenty-six people have been arrested in De Doorns in the Western Cape after xenophobic violence erupted this week.
More than three-thousand people, mostly Zimbabweans, evacuated their shacks in De Doorns when locals claimed they were robbing them of jobs on farms in the area.
Station commissioner Desmond van der Westhuizen says the suspects were allegedly involved in public violence during Tuesday’s confrontations between locals and the foreign workers.
