Ongoing Riots in KZN And Gauteng Claim 6 Lives

 

What initially started as protests calling for the release of former President Jacob Zuma from prison in Kwazulu-Natal on Friday had a disastrous ripple effect to parts of Gauteng over the weekend and has claimed the lives of 6 people

Police on Monday have confirmed that four people have been killed in Gauteng riots and two others in KwaZulu-Natal since the start of the riots

In a statement, the SANDF said it was responding to a request from the South African Police Service's National Joint Operational and Intelligence Structure.

And that the deployment would begin as soon as preparations were complete and its mandate was strictly to help keep police safe as they carried out their duties.
