Residents of Harry Gwala informal settlement near Wattville in Benoni have been battling the Ekurhuleni municipality in the South Gauteng high court since December last year to get services in their area. "On December 12 last year the court ruled that the municipality must instal seven taps in the area and start collecting rubbish", said Paseka Lihlabi, the chairperson of the Landless People's Organisation in the settlement. "But they only installed two taps and since giving us dustbins and a collection calendar just before the elections nothing has materialised". - Sowetan website

The trial of businessman Glenn Agliotti for the alleged murder in 2005 of mining magnate Brett Kebble was postponed to February 2010 in the High Court in Johannesburg on Monday, the SABC reported. This, following a request by the National Prosecuting Authority for time to finalise the extradition of 72-year-old John Stratton, who is also accused of involvement in Kebble's murder.
