Refugee protesters remain holed up at the Central Methodist Mission church in Cape Town

  • 4 years ago
Refugees holed up at the Central Methodist Mission church in Cape Town’s Greenmarket Square have rejected plans by the Department of Home Affairs to reintegrate them to the unsafe communities they fled from last year.

The footage, recorded on Monday (January 27), show large numbers of protesters and makeshift dwellings on the sidewalk near the
renowned tourist market on Greenmarket Square.

After being removed from the Walford building at the UNHCR offices, refugees have sought safety in the Central Methodist Mission church.
