SANDF deployed in Delft as Western Cape taxi violence response intensifies

Western Cape police warned that those responsible for taxi-related violence would face firm action as authorities prepare for possible traffic disruptions across Cape Town. Provincial Police Commissioner Lieutenant-General Sizakhele Dyantyi said investigations were continuing and arrests had already been made, with cases before the courts. Two taxis were shot at on the R300 near Samora Machel. Police and City of Cape Town safety officials outlined the response at a briefing in Green Point.
