Community policing forums and neighbourhood watches in Durban were on full alert this weekend to prevent any repeat of the July 2021 riots and looting due to the shutdown called by the EFF.
Boni Mthiyane, chairperson of the eThekwini Neighbourhood Watch, which was set up in the Inanda, KwaMashu and Ntuzuma area after the 2021 riots, said they would be placing all their members on alert from Friday.“We were formed after the devastation of the looting in 2021 and we don’t want to see looting incidents in our township again,” Mthiyane said. “We think that this protest may come with looting, so we have to be prepared.
“We will place our members on alert from Friday and will be sending our members to areas where people are going to gather. We will also be surrounding the malls in Newlands, Inanda, KwaMashu and the rest of the [Inanda, KwaMashu and Ntuzuma] area.”
