JOHANNESBURG – Police have confirmed an entire shopping centre next to Impala Platinum’s number 9 shaft in Rustenburg was looted and several houses and a community hall torched between Sunday night and the early hours of this morning. In a remarkable case of public disorder, around 4,000 people started gathering near the shopping centre at midnight shortly after the nearby hall was set alight, police say. It’s still unclear who the looters are but it’s suspected the incident is linked to the lengthy strike by members of the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (Amcu). The strike, which has entered its third month, has left many mineworkers in the platinum sector without food or any other income. ewn.co.za/2014/04/28/4000-loot-Rustenburg-shopping-centre?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
