That bombing was followed by several other explosions.
Most have been attributed to a Muslim vigilante group, People Against Gangsterism and Drugs. For about a year, police have cracked down on urban terrorists, and some vigilante group members have been arrested for possession of explosives. On Friday, a prominent vigilante group member was convicted of murdering four people in a shootout near the city's Waterfront tourist area. Regional Safety and Security Minister Mark Wiley said the blast may have been a response to the conviction. Cape Town's tourism chief, Sher-yl Ozinsky, deplored the bombing as an attack on innocent people.
