Overview
- An interim order by the Gauteng High Court directs national, provincial and municipal health officials plus SAPS to ensure safe, unhindered access to the Yeoville and Rosettenville clinics.
- Officials must station adequate trained security at clinic entrances, remove unauthorised obstructers from premises and surrounds, and report all incidents to police.
- Respondents are required to file a detailed report within ten court days outlining actions taken to comply with the order.
- Judge Stuart Wilson criticised the state's weak response to Operation Dudula’s clinic disruptions and allowed applicants to return for further enforcement and broader final relief if needed.
- TAC, MSF and Kopanang welcomed the judgment after documenting persistent pickets that continued despite a separate November order barring Operation Dudula’s unlawful blockages.
