South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa has told an inquiry that riots and looting in two major provinces last July were a deliberate attempt to derail the economy.
President Ramaphosa told the inquiry by the South African Human Rights Commission that although the initial protests were presented as a political grievance, they were in fact an attempt to undermine the country’s democracy.
The deadliest unrest since the end of apartheid cost the economy $3.3bn.
Mr Ramaphosa says investigations to find the suspected masterminds were still continuing.
