Cape Town - A special task team will investigate the cause of the xenophobic attacks in Alexandra and elsewhere in the country, government spokesperson Themba Maseko said on Thursday.
The team would make recommendations about steps required to prevent recurrence of this "negative tendency", he told a media briefing at parliament following Cabinet's regular meeting on Wednesday.
"In the meantime, the law enforcement agencies will use the full force of the law to ensure that no further violence takes place, and those who engage in, actively encourage and incite communities to attack foreign nationals must and will be brought to justice as soon as possible," he said.
Cabinet condemned these attacks in the "strongest possible terms", Maseko said.
