VEREENIGING. - Desperate members of the members of the public want to know how to lodge damages claims against the Council of the Emfuleni Local Municipality, ELM.

Mr Pitso Mphasha, President of the Pan Africanist Congress Youth League (PACYL), writes:
PACYL would like to condemn the xenophobic/Afrophibic attacks that have started in Cape Town. It is very disturbing that South Africans are fighting their fellow Africans in other parts of Africa.
