Johannesburg: In South Africa, work has commenced on the construction of 86 houses for families who were forcibly removed from their homes during the Apartheid era. This development signifies a significant step forward in a landmark case where claimants filed a land restitution application back in 1995, shortly after the end of the Apartheid regime. According to France24.com, although the request for land restitution was approved in 2006, it has taken nearly two decades to finally secure the land necessary for these new homes. The project aims to provide a sense of justice and closure for the affected families, who have waited many years for the promise of return and reparation to be fulfilled.
