Red Ants oppose land invasion
Two people were arrested and charged with public violence on Sunday after eviction agency the Red Ants and municipal law enforcement demolished shacks in Bongani and Khayalethu, Knysna earlier in the day. The demolitions and subsequent arrest of a woman in Bongani had allegedly angered residents to the point where they barricaded all roads in the area with tree trunks, burning tyres and rocks, and the police allegedly responded with stun grenades and rubber bullets to disperse the crowd.
