Nach dem Großbrand: Die gekidnappten Häuser von Johannesburg
77 Menschen starben Ende August, als ein von Banden "gekidnapptes" Haus in Johannesburg Feuer fing. Hunderte solcher Gebäude gibt es hier - sie sind ein Symbol für Versagen und Verfall. Ist die Stadt noch zu retten? Von R. Klug.
Der Niedergang Johannesburgs.

#Johannesburg building fire: Misery of gang-hijacked towers comes into focus
> This is a tale of two cities. One is Africa's richest metropolis: glitzy shopping malls, gated estates, swanky restaurants and leafy streets. The other — where 76 people died in an inferno that engulfed a derelict building on Thursday — has garbage rotting in the gutters, jobless men drinking morning beers and an abundance of ads for abortion clinics and funeral parlors.

And tragic reprecussion
Mourners can only shed tears and hurl

#Johannesburg - Death trap: Trapped residents fled through windows in S.African inferno
>Blankets and sheets still hang from the blackened windows, used by the desperate to reach safety as flames turned the five-storey building in downtown Johannesburg into a death trap.
>Others just jumped.
>Witnesses spoke of parents throwing their babies out into the street, trying to save them, after scrabbling around in vain to find an exit.
