The Cape High court has dismissed an application by the residents of the Joe Slovo informal settlement which sought to challenge the legality of an agreement between the City, the Western Cape government and property developer Thubelisha Homes.
Legal counsel for Thubelisha and Western Cape Housing Minister Richard Dyantyi have now started making submissions in their application to evict 20 000 residents from the settlement.
The plan to move the residents comes after plans by State owned developer Thubelisha Homes to construct formal housing there as part of the Western Cape's N2 gateway project.
