On Thursday, the Kagiso community acted against illegal gold miners operating near their community, but those who helped the Zama-Zama were not spared. Kagiso residents threw rocks at police in a standoff on Randfontein Road, one of the major routes in the area that had been blocked off in a protest against illegal mining on Thursday morning. Colonel Athlende Mathe joined Radio Islam International to provide an update on the situation.
