The government has urged anti-immigration groups planning a nationwide shutdown on 30 June to protest within the law, warning against violence while acknowledging growing public frustration over undocumented migration.
Anti-migrant group March and March movement says it will proceed with its planned national shutdown on June 30 calling on illegal foreigners to leave the country, despite the government calling for calm following high-level talks on rising protests over undocumented migration.
This follows an urgent meeting at the Union Buildings in Pretoria on Monday, between ministers in the Justice, Crime Prevention and Security Cluster to address rising protests over illegal immigration.
The meeting focused on growing demonstrations against immigration and undocumented foreign nationals across the country.
Security cluster ministers and senior officials responsible for national security attended the discussions in Tshwane.
