SAHRC: Human rights violations increased in SA

3 March 2019

JOHANNESBURG - The South African Human Rights Commission says human rights violations have increased in South Africa. The commission says one of the contributing factors is the fact that many South Africans have no respect for the rule of law.

March is human rights month. After almost 25-years of democracy, does South Africa have a healthy human rights culture?

SA Human Rights Commission's Mohamed Shafie Ameermia unpacks this topic in the video above.
