Humanitarian aid organisation Gift of the Givers says a decision on whether it will resume aid to foreign nationals living in the Cape Town CBD will be made on Monday.

Previously, the organisation provided food, toiletries and medical services to refugees who have taken shelter at the Methodist Church.

Gift of the Givers had stepped in after the group was removed from the offices of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in October.They were angry over Gift of the Givers Director Badr Kazi’s remarks that their demands for resettlement were unrealistic.“What we have done, we have taken the matter under advisement.

Divisions at camp are some of the challenges that are facing the refugees as their bid to be flown out of South Africa, over safety fears, continues. On December 30, police had to use stun grenades to restore order after tensions boiled over between those camping on the pavement and the ones who live inside the church premises.

One of the leaders of the two factions Jean-Pierre Balous will return to court on January 22 after appearing briefly on January 3.
