Soweto violent looters released

publicviolenceProtea South protesters, who were arrested for public violence and looting since Thursday in Soweto, have been released on bail.

They spent the long weekend in holding cells. 25 people including four minors were arrested after a service delivery protest turned violent. They were all granted R800 bail.

The case has been postponed to next Monday for further investigations. The State is yet to quantify the damage caused during the protests.

There are concerns that the violence could continue. Police are in maintaining a close watch in the area.
