The civil action group also said it welcomed a commitment by eThekwini mayor, Zandile Gumede, that an independent investigation be initiated into the strike action.
The Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse said on Tuesday that a settlement agreement reached between eThekwini Municipality and trade unions regarding a wildcat strike earlier this month rewarded protesters and punished residents.
At an executive committee meeting on Tuesday, Gumede said: “heads will roll from those who did wrong to this city”, referring to the illegal strike action, which saw municipal infrastructure intentionally damaged and basic services severely disrupted. Several assaults were also reported. Gumede further told EXCO that the city “can’t become a banana republic city” and that residents were entitled to know what led to the strike.
Another one of the settlement agreements reached was that employees could apply to regrade their posts in terms of the Jobs Evaluation Policy.
