The Ekurhuleni municipality evicted more than 300 households from its Airport Park Phase 2 property in Germiston on Monday morning, over allegations of nonpayment of rent and services by residents.
According to the city, the evictions stem from a court order granted in favour of the Ekurhuleni Housing Company to evict occupants who are not paying rent or services.
However, the enraged residents said the evictions were illegal.
