South Africa: Taxi crackdown planned after Hout Bay bloodbath By News24
Transport and Public Works MEC Donald Grant said the committee – comprising transport department officials, provincial traffic, law enforcement, NPA and police representatives – condemned the violence “in the strongest terms” and would assist police in their investigations.
“The violence is believed to be related to ongoing disputes between two associations affiliated with the two Cape mother-bodies, CATA and CODETA . The associations are CATA: Hout Bay – Wynberg and Central Unity Taxi Association,” Grant said. He confirmed both associations had been suspended after last week’s shooting, in which a man was shot dead on Thursday.
