'Suddenly we were told to move, there's no water here, no electricity. Snakes and rocks in our homes,' says a resident.

Ward councillor Sharlene Davids told the African News Agency on Tuesday that the whole process was being halted by residents who refused to relocate. Davids said that no houses were built as yet and explained that the houses would only get built once the residents occupied the service site area which is located near the Malabar Primary School.

However, Davids disputed this and said that since she had been the ward councillor for approximately two and a half years, residents had been instructed to relocate only twice.
