Judgment in the City of Cape Town’s court fight to compel the EFF to “comply with the law” during its planned national shutdown is expected to be delivered late on Friday.

The interdict was granted with a costs order against the EFF. Cape Town mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis welcomed the interdict.

Hill-Lewis said the interdict was aimed at ensuring the organisers and participants stay within the confines of lawful and peaceful protest. He added: “Cape Town will be open for business as usual. We have obtained an interdict against any attempts to incite or participate in looting, vandalism or disruptions. We welcome the court extending the interdict to include protection of private property as well as public infrastructure. The order has further been extended to the whole Western Cape province and includes a costs order against the EFF. This is indeed a victory for the rule of law.

‘We are well prepared to ensure that Capetonians are able to go about their daily business on Monday. We will enforce this interdict and uphold the rule of law. There will be no national shutdown in Cape Town, our economy does not have time for that,’ said Hill-Lewis.The city had hauled the EFF to court to obtain an order compelling the party to comply with the Regulation of Gatherings Act during its march on Monday.
