SA National Taxi council (Santaco) in the Western Cape says it will be filing another court interdict against the city of Cape Town.

The council is accusing the city of impounding six of its minibus taxis over the weekend.

Santaco called off its strike last week following talks with the city as part of the resolutions reached, there was an agreement that the next fourteen days would be used to work towards the release of the vehicles that were wrongly impounded.

Santaco Western Cape chairperson Mandla Hermanus had previously said it was disappointing that it had taken so long for all parties to find a resolution.

“What we will do is to ensure that we go back to the task team to finalise some of the issues that we have not yet agreed on.
