Police not likely to enforce ban on struggle song

It will be impractical to expect the police to actively enforce a ban on singing the controversial Shoot the Boer song.

Johan Burger of the SA Institute for Security Studies says law enforcers simply have more important things to do.

The South Gauteng High Court yesterday ruled that the song was hate speech and there was no justification for its singing.

Burger says only under certain conditions will police enforce the ruling.
