Pretoria - The Gauteng MEC for Roads and Transport Jacob Mamabolo has approached the High Court for an urgent interdict to ground four taxi associations allegedly involved in the recent spate of violence in Olievenhoutbosch and surrounding areas.
Speaking on the Xolani Gwala Show Mamabolo said in a bid to end the scourge of violence which has claimed nine lives, “we have approached the court to say we want to place the four taxi associations that are fighting under administration, which means we are going to strip them of all their powers.” “We want to ground them and put them under administration to make sure they cannot collect cash from members because the money that gets collected is also collected in almost what borders on money laundering.”
“We also want to ground their offices, take the keys of all their offices and close them down until administrators are appointed.”
