The workshop of Afroz Patel was ransacked and looted by rioters in Durban
SURAT: Abdul Patel’s words that he hasn’t witnessed such lawlessness in South Africa before added to the worries of his relatives back home in Surat. It’s been more than two decades since Abdul shifted to Johannesburg from Limbayat.
His brother and other family members are spending sleepless nights here ever since riots broke out across South Africa after the arrest of former president Jacob Zuma. Like Patels, many families in south Gujarat are worried for the well-being of their loved ones who had moved to South Africa.
