Tshwane metro challenges DA to prove destruction of 600 graves in Pretoria East

Tshwane metropolitan municipality has berated Democratic Alliance's Lex Middelberg for “callously” stirring up emotions to “score cheap political points” by claiming that the metro has desecrated 600 graves in Pretoria East Cemetery. Middelberg claimed in a statement released on Wednesday afternoon that the city's workers obliterated graves‚ damaged a number of tombstones and destroyed or removed some tombstones and shrines built and maintained by grieving city residents.
