The ministry of justice and correctional services has condemned intimidation of the Socio-Economic Rights Institute's staff in the wake of litigation on the rights of informal traders in Johannesburg.
Seri has supported the SA Informal Traders Forum with a successful application to the Gauteng high court which last week ordered the city to reverse the illegal eviction of information traders from the De Villiers trading precinct.
The social media threats came after ActionSA councillor Nkululeko Mbundu, the MMC for economic development, allegedly falsely asserted that the city had been interdicted because the case against the city “used locals as a front”, said Seri.
