EFF protest against state capture
A group of EFF supporters are protesting outside the High Court in Pretoria, demanding of the release of the Public Protector's state capture report.
This while arguments are being heard inside court on whether the report should be released.
President Jacob Zuma, Cooperative Governance Minister Des van Rooyen and Mineral Resources Minister Mosebenzi Zwane have applied for an interdict to halt the release.
The protesters outside court are there in support of the EFF, who is opposing the application along with the DA, Cope, the UDM and former ANC MP Vytjie Mentor.

Tshwane Metro police spokesperson Isaac Mahamba is urging motorists to avoid Madiba Street between Paul Kruger and Bosman Streets.
"We've closed a portion of Madiba Street. We are hoping to reopen that portion of street soon. Metro Police and SAPS are on scene and everything is still calm," says Mahamba.
