We witnessed a group of foreign schoolgirls, some in Islamic dress, at Joseph Nduli Street in Durban, on Tuesday. They came across an angry group who was shouting: “Nazi izingane zabo, azibulawe, azibulawe! “Here are their kids! Kill them, kill them!” A man from the crowd shouted: “Tomorrow their kids won’t be as lucky as today.
“We are going to smash their heads with knobkerries!”
For a few minutes the children’s lives seemed to hang in the balance, but then a man, believed to be a foreigner, came to their rescue and led them away to safety.
* A foreigner was rushed to hospital after being shot in Denis Hurley Street in Durban yesterday.
The chaos in Durban has started again and the CBD was once again brought to a standstill.
Foreigners defended themselves from locals who threw a bag with a dead snake, dirty cotton wool ropes and small portions of dark muthi into the street.
The cops dispersed both crowds.
* Police managed to disperse some of the warring groups with traditional weapons in Dr Pixley kaSeme Street but the commotion then spread to other streets.
