South Africa is shocked by the March and March anti-illegal immigration activist Andile Somgaxa's murder. Police have vowed to leave no stone unturned in their search for those responsible.
The South African Police Service (SAPS) has assembled a specialised team of detectives and crime intelligence officers to probe the murder of Andile Somgaxa, the March and March Gauteng leader, who was gunned down in the driveway of his Greenfield, Johannesburg, home on 4 July and succumbed to his injuries five days later.
March and March is a civic movement that has made headlines for its uncompromising stance on immigration policy in South Africa.
The group champions tighter border controls and calls for jobs and resources to be reserved for South African citizens.
In recent months, March and March has spearheaded large-scale anti-illegal migrant protests nationwide and set an unofficial deadline for undocumented foreign nationals to leave South Africa by 30 June.
