PRETORIA-(MaraviPost)-A South African High Court has ruled that Operation Dudula’s actions of preventing foreigners from accessing public healthcare and education facilities were unlawful and xenophobic.

In its ruling, the court has ordered the anti-immigration group to stop barring foreign nationals from accessing social services.

It has also prohibited the group from intimidating, assaulting, inciting hate speech and unlawfully evicting foreign nationals.

The ruling also restricts police from conducting warrantless searches, document demands, or arrests in private homes, allowing such actions in public only with reasonable suspicion.
