Police in South Africa say the house and car of a suspected drug-dealer have been set on fire in an arson attack in Cape Town.

A police spokesman said the owner of the property was reported to have been warned by neighbours on Saturday to stop his alleged drug dealing.

On Friday a petrol bomb injured two people and destroyed a house belonging to another suspected drug dealer.

Similar recent attacks have been linked to a largely Islamic vigilante group called People Against Gangsterism and Drugs PAGAD.
