#SandtonShutdown: Here are the demands
Civil society groups taking part in the #SandtonShutdown march on Friday against gender-based violence, handed over a memorandum to Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) CEO Nicky Newton-King.
"I salute you all for bringing your voice to the heart of business," Newton-King said after accepting the memorandum. She added that it would be taken to all relevant parties for consideration.
However, after the crowd heckled her, Newton-King left the protest.
"This is your team and you need to control them," she told organisers, as the crowed continued to chant.
Organisers eventually managed to convince her to return to address the protesters.
