The City of Cape Town is seeking a court interdict against Samwu following a wave of strike violence on Monday.

Reports say services at several public clinics were disrupted by incidents of intimidation.

Workers also went on a rampage in the city centre, and in several other areas, blocking municipal office gates with building rubble and burning tires.

The SA Municipal Workers’ Union has been calling for an 18% wage increase and began a nationwide strike on Monday.
