According to Hlomuka, it is believed the attack is related to the unrest that occurred during the day, in relation to the lack of housing, water and electricity – in the informal settlement.
The attacks on the department were condemned by Hlomuka, and he said the rest of the vehicles were removed to prevent further damage.
