A Mechanic died yesterday in a Port St John’s back street during a police raid.

A number of claims made to the Dispatch by witnesses, a DA councillor and the dead 28-year-old mechanic’s family are under investigation by Independent Police Investigations Directorate (Ipid).

A joint task team set up to quell taxi violence in the Eastern Cape apparently arrived in a cavalcade of 10 vehicles which included police officers, traffic officers and municipal cars from King Sabata Dalindyebo (KSD).
