The City of Cape Town will today take legal action Police Minister Bheki Cele for shutting down the filming of a commercial on Camps Bay beach yesterday. Cele was on a walkabout on beaches in Cape Town when an altercation with a film crew happened in Camps Bay. He said a municipal by-law could not override the national regulations. The MEC for Safety and Security JP Smith, who was on the scene, said the shoot was authorised by the City’s film by-law office.
