South Africa sent troops to quell riots that left six people dead since former President Jacob Zuma reported to a prison facility last week.
Security forces were deployed in two states Monday, as police were overwhelmed by protests and looting, and a South African court began hearing an appeal launched by Zuma on his lengthy prison sentence.
Police said Monday that 219 people have been arrested in connection to riots and looting.
According to Reuters, Zuma s lawyers asked the court to release the 79-year-old former leader partly on the grounds that the Constitutional Court improperly imposed the sentence in his absence.
