Foreigners are living in fear in Imizamo Yethu in Hout Bay after some residents warned locals not to harbour immigrants in their homes.
The threat followed an incident over the weekend when a three-year-old girl was raped, allegedly by a Malawian man.
At a community meeting last night, immigrants were given 24hours to leave the area or be forced out.
It has been reported that locals claim crime has increased in the area since the arrival of immigrants.
