The African National Congress Youth League in the Western Cape has lodged a complaint with the Human Rights Commission after revelations that residents of Makhaza section in Khayelitsha, Cape Town, are forced to use toilets without walls.

The residents say they have to cover themselves with blankets when they use the toilets because they were built without walls.

The Youth League’s Chumile Sali says the situation is, as he puts it, “equal to crimes against humanity”.
