Said Molefe:<\/p>\n<p>I represent young people in this community. It is the young people that are asking why are you allowing these Zimbabweans to kill us. We are not joking here.<\/p>\n<p>We have invited the minister here. Zimbabweans must leave once and for all. We are saying that South Africans must start walking around with ID documents.<\/p>\n<p>We are calling for operation stop, search and arrest. Police must randomly search [and ask] who are you, where are you from, where is your documentation\u2026That is how we want it in Diepsloot.<\/p>\n<p>Diepsloot residents blamed foreign nationals for the high levels of crimes such as armed robberies and murder in the area.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Foundation for Human Rights, a Johannesburg-based organisation that focuses on human rights issues across SA, said it had started to receive requests from migrants in Diepsloot who want help to return to their countries.<\/p>\n<p>Sarah Motha, the foundation\u2019s programme director for vulnerable groups, claimed that dozens of immigrants have already left Diepsloot for their safety. She said:<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a high level of fear in people who have been living in Diepsloot as immigrants.<\/p>\n<p>Since the acts of violence started some have relocated while some are asking to be repatriated to their home countries.<\/p>\n<p>We have met with other civic organisations today to map out how we can intervene and get help in terms of evacuating those that want to be evacuated [from Diepsloot].<\/p>\n<p>Home Affairs Minister Aaron Motsoaledi and Minister of Police Bheki Cele were in Diepsloot, to find a lasting solution to the challenges that resulted in violent protests this week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
