Updated | By Steve Bhengu
Violent scenes have unfolded during a planned ANC Youth League march in Durban. Police have intervened as supporters started targeting DA supporters.
Listen to the full bulletin below.
The league planned a march to coincide with the country-wide People's March - calling for Absa to 'pay back the money'.
The group, with around 2000 supporters, seems to have gone off course from their march to ABSA and are now headed to North Beach where the DA-led march ended.
Police have had to use stun grenades to disperse the crowds where participants of the DA march came under attack.
