'A group of people have been cutting locks and breaking into Communicare premises in an attempt to hijack buildings.'

Communicare, which offers many of its properties as “social rentals”, said on Wednesday that it was extremely concerned and had reported “escalating threats” to the police.

“Vacant units being repaired or waiting for new tenants to move in are being targeted by the group. Some of those organising these invasions include a few tenants and have already been arrested and appeared in court on charges of obstructing justice, as well as contempt of court.”Houston said the Cape Town high court interdicted the group in March from unlawfully occupying units or inciting others to do so.

“On Tuesday night, the group once again resorted to violence and beat a security guard into submission to obtain keys to a house,” she said.
