' We are still using portable toilets that are only cleaned once a week and we are still living in cramped conditions' - Alexandra resident.

“Residents of Alexandra are still living in deplorable conditions and the situation is disturbing,” says South African Human Rights Commission Gauteng provincial manager Buang Jones. On Monday, the Commission conducted an inspection in Alexandra, following its joint report with the Public Protector in July last year which called for urgent intervention to correct human rights violations in Alexandra.

and Metro Police had been given 60 days to respond after the release of the report, “but we have not received any formal responses to date”. “We decided to embark on this visit to assess progress made in implementing the Commission’s recommendations and directives,” said Jones. While there was “some improvement in some parts of Alexandra”, there had been no significant change since the release of the report, he said.

and the Johannesburg Metro Police Department also attended the briefing. They said law enforcement had been strengthened through the establishment of an anti-land invasion unit and through visible policing, where officers are deployed in hotspot areas. Jones urged the City and the provincial government to submit their responses to the report by May, when the Commission will host another inspection and engagement.
