He said: > Everybody just arrives in our townships and rural areas and set up businesses without licences and permits, we are going to bring this to an end. And those who are operating illegally wherever they come from must now know…. Human Rights Watch southern Africa director Dewa Mavhinga, writing the organisation’s website, said: > To effectively combat xenophobia, the government and police need to publicly acknowledge attacks on foreign nationals and their property as xenophobic and take decisive action. > Inflammatory public statements — such as those made by Johannesburg mayor Herman Mashaba in December 2016, blaming illegal immigrants for crimes and calling on them to leave the city — should be strongly condemned. > As South Africa prepares for national elections on May 8, 2019, political leaders should not incite xenophobic violence or promote discrimination. *Related:* *Zim Truck Driver Caught In Xenophobic Crossfire, Battles For Life In Durban* *3 Dead In Fresh Xenophobic Attacks In SA* *More: Daily News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
