South Africa's all-white enclave town of Orania has lost its radio station

BBC News:

The Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (Icasa) said Radio Klub100 had been shut down after broadcasting without a licence.

Icasa official Lydia de Souza also said the station had been broadcasting racist material.

Orania was established in the early 1990s by white South Africans who wanted to keep a racially exclusive community after the end of apartheid.

"Our monitors were of the view that it was a racist-based station and very right wing," Ms de Souza, senior manager of broadcast licensing, monitoring and compliance at Icasa, told Reuters.

So much for free speech in South Africa. Here is the justification that the government used for closing down the station:

Icasa says however that it was the lack of a licence, rather than the content of its broadcasts, that prompted the closure of the station and the confiscation of its equipment.

I think the South African government would be better off concentrating on the high levels of rape and murder that are taking place in the country rather than wasting time on local radio stations.
