Ten security guards protecting unfinished houses at the N2 Gateway Project in Delft on the Cape Flats have been assaulted, apparently by a mob of backyard dwellers.
More than 1,000 Delft residents were returning from the Cape High Court after an application aiming to evict them from the houses, was postponed to next Wednesday.
A police officer at the scene confirmed that the security guards were assaulted after members of the group, who are illegally occupying the houses, accused them of allowing more people to move in.
