WATCH:Police turn violent on ‘peaceful protesters’

Police have used water cannons on protesters near parliament ahead of the State of the Nation Address (SONA) by President Jacob Zuma.

According to Times LIVE, DA MP Marius Redelinghuys was arrested together with at least four other DA members and were being held captive in a police van in Burg Street, Cape Town, by 17:00

“We have done nothing wrong. We do not know why we were arrested. We are trying to find out,” an agitated Redelinghuys, who is also DA national spokesperson, was quoted by the online publication.
