Isithebe residents, KZN ANC leaders meet
Residents of Isithebe have gathered at a local sports ground where local municipal officials and the ANC's provincial leadership will hear their complaints.
Some members of the community have gone on the rampage over the last few days - torching factories, several trucks and other property.
Their violent protests have brought the north coast town to a standstill.
Mandeni Municipality Mayor Siphesihle Zulu says it was agreed that there should be a community meeting today.

"One of their complaints is around the issue of the poor performance of the Department of Health staff at the clinic in the area. The people who are deployed by the department are here," he said.
One hundred and twenty people were arrested during the protests and will be applying for bail in the eShowe Magistrate's Court on Tuesday.
