Tropico 4,145 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 This is terrible. All day, I've heard stories about foreigners being attacked, killed, harassed and forced out of their homes/shops by gangs. This is all because some Zulu King foreigners should “pack their bags and go home”. This lead to people literally KILLING foreigners. Several people have been killed and thousands more displaced as the violent attacks on the basis of ethnicity continued unabated. On Monday night, KwaMashu was electric as gangs moved from shop to shop. [...] “I have not been able to sleep. First I worried that they might kill me and now I find myself here, where I am trying to close my store because they will take everything,” Mahmoud said. “The government says that we are welcome here, but that is not the truth. These people will take everything and take your life. We are outcasts.” The shopkeeper, who has plied his trade in Syria, said South Africa had become hell on earth. “This is what we have been reduced to … running for our lives. We are trying desperately to leave, but all the trucks are busy. All the brothers are trying to flee.” Earlier in the night, another Somali-owned shop in a shipping container was doused in paraffin, but police chased the vandals away before they could set it alight. In Lindelani, police rushing to the scene of a shooting happened upon a shop where the owners were clearing out their stock. Police had seen a group of South Africans closing in and warned them off, only to be pelted with rocks and stones.
