a set of awful because. they came to south africa to seek refuge or simply a better future now will they want is to get out for weeks hundreds of migrants have been camping here outside the un's refugee agency in cape town demanding to be rededicated to other countries but on wednesday after an eviction order the police moved in. they fired water cannons and stun grenades. police say they arrested some 100 foreign nationals who refused to disperse for the protesters the use of force by the police is fueling anger over what they call as xenophobia atmosphere in south africa yes thank you dan stein i don't even really look really can't get past tense i must get the time that every monday

night that we're putting an executive good for anybody i forget all of us tell you but you know even if you but i was going to talk i think you know putting up any major damage you could still get him in a little. many migrants from other african countries go to south africa seeking better job prospects. but after a spate of deadly riots and attacks in september many say they no longer feel safe here. that's why these protesters in cape. town have been calling on the u.n. to move them to another country. last week the un refugee agency issued a statement saying false messages were being circulated about resettlement and that only a very small number of refugees and asylum seekers met the criteria. but that didn't stop the protests here.
10:34 pm
after wednesday's police operation remaining demonstrators headed on. for now their new home is a local church where they've been given temporary shelter. our correspondents and anchors has been speaking to some of the refugees about church here in the church where about 300 people are seeking shelter refugees you can see it is completely overcrowded so many people have the space it is not smelling very well of course of the stress level is very high the tensions are very high and people have experienced very terrible things on wednesday when they were the correct down on their protests and the police was attacking them we just talked to sylvie one mother who was a witness of what happened and she actually got injured herself. i'm sorry i feel that saying that because they had to it's. because whether the thing is today
10:35 pm
is the 50 center for the cut in south africa because that was done by the government. because that is the new money that i saw with my sister if a policeman can support him are the current there is no future for my children distantly i want to go. if you want to go anywhere as long as we are out of this country a place that we're going to be safe where are we going to see that we've been declared as a human being not like cockroaches or not like she could because we're not going to be slaughtered every day if you think that if you were the scientists in today's. not better place than home and then as we close our force to leave my country i did not choose to come to south africa i did not wake up one day and say let me thank you both for only the songs i forgot that i was forced to leave my country and indeed to the u n c i and this country knows that he's not p.c.'s but if there was a piece i did that but it was not peace that i told them to look for it this way i
10:36 pm
can have peace bernie and refugee sylvie speaking to encourage that i spoke to garrett and you have head of the justice and violence prevention program at the institute for security studies i began by asking him whether the police as use of force was proportionate well what you saw was quite the stress and certainly we do have a problem generally in south africa with the disproportionate use of force but i think for most of what i've seen in this instance what he's done to stand there for many days have been negotiations trying to get people to leave that area there where they really it was a court order benchley instructing people to leave and the police only call in as a very last resort and even the police try to negotiate and your people leave peacefully so only once all possible means of getting people to leave peacefully had being utilized the police start using direct force to try and clear that area and eventually arrested 100 people now you said that the police have been using
10:37 pm
force for some time now what's the problem exactly a lack of proper training or is there a deeper problem here. well there's a deeper problem and next the police believe that using force is an issue part of the job and i think in many instances they tend to use too much force when it comes to public order policing the units that are involved in this particular operation they do not have enough resources they need 12213000 trained officers and currently we have around 5600 and those officers are have seen a big increase of public violence a destructive incidence of incidents that they have to respond to by about 140 percent in the last 5 years so they are under a lot of strain and in many cases that means of a mountain too quick to use force to solve these situations quickly rather than a more protective and this force who didn't. well that is one type of problem but
10:38 pm
you routine your recess that many police officers hold off for because it seems cause that's happening there or here it is true that in my research i have found police officers do hold as in a phone we can after serving attitudes in this situation however i think given that there are so many germans given that there was a large number of people from the public who are sympathizing with those migrants in those very few days. that they were being very careful to try and act as much as possible in the procedure so i did not see instances where you want to do it it was a bit too much mostly used but i'm not sure how this instance whether that's as well because it ok now our public violence in south africa is rising and foreign nationals are particularly vulnerable what can and should be done quickly. well the government is rolled out the national action plan to combat racism racial discrimination xenophobia and other targets and there's a number of interventions party policing but i think we need to shift the attitudes

that's why i'm going to claim. i'm going to be active 7 c. in the end of it so made the cut to become an acquisition or ranger the initiative in northern symbolic is run by the international active poaching foundation created in 2009 but strangely in sniper danann random dangerous job after spending time in the special forces and working in private security in iraq he found a new purpose in conservation what we found with this program is the women's ability to naturally deescalate tension and work with the communities they come from we're not having a war with the local community in the government as i. and had to make a choice between conservation or communities in so many ways women have become the bridge that conservation had to build into these communities in the 16 years before the program was launched 8000 elephants were killed in this area since the rangers a rival 2 years ago elephant poaching has dropped by 80 percent in this time the
