Tensions are high at Mzimhlophe Hostel near Meadowlands as dwellers continued to protest over power shortages.

The crowd was dispersed by 8am this morning and JMPD remain vigilant in the area.
Mzimhlophe Hostel dwellers took to the streets yesterday morning to protest against electricity blackouts.
