In addition, a parallel process will unfold at the Gauteng High Court, which is set—at the end of October—to establish legal certainty on how to approach asylum seekers who are detained and express an intention to apply: must they be released, or must the application process be facilitated from within the detention center?
This, as protests over undocumented immigration continue to grow in parts of the country.
