Residents went on a protest at Phola near the entrance at the traffic lights, burning tyres and closing the road on the R545 and at the Seriti Extension mine.
Allegedly, they wanted to intrude on the land situated on the other side of the R545, but they were chased away by the mine’s security guards.
