South African police warned anti-immigration groups Wednesday against taking the law into their own hands after two Mozambicans were killed in the first deaths linked to protests against illegal migrants. The Mozambicans died in the southern coastal town of Mossel Bay after a small demonstration against illegal migrants on Friday, one of several held in centres across the country in recent weeks.
