The note, according to the concerned community who believe those responsible for blowing up the sub-station were from a nearby informal settlement, stated: "If we cannot have electricity no one can".

Chaos erupted in Durban's Sea Cow Lake area yesterday as police clashed with informal dwellers, who were burning tyres and logs in an illegal protest.

The protesters would not allow people to go to work.

The protest, during which roads were blockaded, was sparked by the demolition of the informal residents' shacks by the Housing Department and the municipality.
