Court halts Shell’s seismic survey along the Wild Coast
By Brenda Masilela : 28 Dec 2021
PRETORIA – The Grahamstown High Court in Makhanda on Tuesday granted an interdict against Shell’s seismic survey along the Wild Coast
This a second application made in the same court to stop oil multinational Shell’s seismic survey along South Africa’s Wild Coast.
Three weeks ago, Judge Avinash Govindjee dismissed the application by activists – including Greenpeace – to stop the survey on the basis that “irreparable harm” to marine species had not been proved.
