ZAThe South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) has expressed serious concerns regarding an uptick in alleged human rights violations targeting foreign nationals across South Africa. These violations reportedly include door-to-door searches aimed at identifying and forcibly evicting non-nationals from their homes in townships and informal settlements, alongside intimidation of humanitarian organizations and threats against businesses owned by foreigners. The SAHRC emphasized that while the government has a constitutional duty to manage immigration and enforce legal repatriation, this must be done in accordance with human rights principles, the rule of law, and respect for human dignity. The commission highlighted that such actions not only breach legal standards but also exacerbate xenophobic sentiments and endanger vulnerable individuals.
