COMMUNITY members queueing outside the Empangeni Home Affairs offices were earlier this week greeted by the stench of decomposing animal remains illegally dumped next to a stream in Biyela Road.

This was the third incident of this nature the ZO has reported on in recent weeks, and the municipality is aware of this ongoing problem that is plaguing the town.
