Makhura shames looters, parents

 

 

SAPA, IOL, Johannesburg, 24 January 2015

 

Soweto residents taking part in the looting of foreign-owned shops and
parents who were allowing them to bring home the goods, were described as a
curse to the community by Gauteng premier David Makhura on Friday.

 

"Shame unto you! How are going to raise your child while you show them how
to steal?" he asked residents at a meeting in Doornkop, following five days
of looting of foreign-owned stores.

 

"Parents, when your child brings stolen goods into your house what are you
saying?"

 

He said if parents allowed their children to steal from foreigners, next
time the children would steal from them.

 

He was part of a delegation of religious and government leaders in Doornkop
to appeal for peace.

 

At least three people have been killed and 162 people arrested since the
unrest started on Monday.

 

Makhura said the looting was not justified.

 

"We do not want a situation where being a foreigner is a crime," he said.
