After numerous complaints the SA Human Rights Commissioner Chris Nissen has vowed to personally ask vagrants next to the Johnston Road cemetery to clear out, and to respect the dead.

City’s law enforcement spokesperson Wayne Dyason said the onus remained on the management board of the privately-owned cemeteries to maintain and secure their properties.

Dyason also said the surrounding location was attended to by law enforcement officers on a regular basis. Mayor Dan Plato said while it was ironic that Nissen now seemed to carry out the duties he was trying to prevent the City from doing, he welcomed his intention to assist in Rylands.
