Cyril Ramaphosa says ‘good number’ of those who planned violence and looting had been identified
The wave of protest and looting that swept across much of South Africa over the past week was planned by enemies of democracy in a deliberate effort to sow chaos, president Cyril Ramaphosa said.
Speaking to reporters in some of the areas worst hit by the unrest, Ramaphosa said authorities had identified “a good number” of those who planned and coordinated the violence, the worst in South Africa since the end of the apartheid regime in 1994.
