Palestinian protestors to appear in court over Cape Union Mart demonstrations [SOUND]

# Four Palestinian protestors are expected to appear in the Western Cape High Court today, following their protest outside Cape Union Mart stores yesterday. The Palestine Solidarity Campaign claims Cape Union Mart is allegedly funding the Israeli army and is complicit in the Gaza conflict. The company has denied the allegations and has filed for an interdict seeking to restrain the PSC from harassing its customers and staff. PSC co-ordinator, Usuf Chikte, told the SABC that the protests were a legitimate exercise of free speech:
