Johannesburg- Police had to be called in to intervene when an Italian national in a private charter plane that had landed at OR Tambo International refused to leave the country.
However, his flight had allegedly not been cleared by the Department of Transport as required in terms of the protocols in force during the lockdown. "Subsequently a decision was made that the man, who is an Italian nation holding a South African passport, would not be allowed into the country. "Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula has called for a full investigation into the incident and consequence management should wrongdoing be found to have taken place," she said.
