Western Cape "poo" war continues


Five people have been arrested for dumping human waste in two departure terminals at Cape Town International Airport.

Western Cape police spokesperson, lieutenant-colonel Andre' Traut, says they will appear in court soon.

Airport spokesperson, Deborah Francis, says the group apparently pretended to be passengers, when they carried plastic bags through to the domestic and international departures terminal at about 1.30pm on Tuesday afternoon.

She says after they threw the faeces in the two terminals they jumped back into their cars and sped off but were later apprehended by police.

Two weeks ago, 183 people were arrested on public violence charges at the Esplanade train station in Woodstock for carrying portable flush toilets and human waste in blue municipal bags placed in milk crates.
