Vagrant mess cleared up again
Knysna’s battle with vagrants illegally occupying houses, businesses or any spot they fancy for that matter, still continues. Recently, on 16 January, Knysna police, municipal law enforcement and SA National Parks (SANParks) organised a cleanup operation of some of the town's more notorious spots – where loads of rubbish was removed from unhygienic conditions. Problems with vagrants in Knysna are common and ongoing, from people illegally occupying the old magistrate's house in Handel Street and sleeping at the Post Office, to causing disturbances by also frequenting some business spots in town.
