Picketers gather at High Court buildings, cleared by SAPS

The protesters who blocked off the section of OR Tambo Street in front of the Middelburg High Court buildings have been disbanded by the SAPS after gathering during the night.

During a visit by the Middelburg Observer earlier this morning, the President of the RET Orgnisation gave a statement during an interview.

The picketers sat peacefully, and the waste that was seen scattering the area was picked up and placed in plastic bags.

The SAPS has however cleared the scene again.

The President of the RET Organisation’s statement will be published on the Middelburg Observer website on Monday.
