South Africa: Trade union members to protest at Sea Harvest offices in Cape Town, July 31
Trade union members to protest at Sea Harvest offices at 4 South Arm Road, Waterfront, Cape Town, South Africa, July 31.
Members of the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU) plan to hold a protest outside the Sea Harvest offices at 4 South Arm Road, Victoria and Alfred Waterfront, Cape Town, on July 31. The demonstration is scheduled from 10:00-14:00. The purpose of the protest is to denounce the death of 11 fishermen who were on duty when a vessel sank in May.
Heightened security is likely for the duration of the demonstration. Similar protests are possible at the Headquarters of Sea Harvest Offices located nearby in Woodstock. Disruptions to access to the Waterfront and ground transportation near the site are possible. Violence is unlikely.
Avoid the protests as a standard precaution. Monitor local media sources for updates. Heed the directives of authorities. Plan for ground travel disruptions near the protest site.
