Their core customers, as well as their staff, are the black middle class that has grown since apartheid. Over the past few days, however, looters have overrun malls in cities such as Pretoria, Durban and Johannesburg. Thousands of criminals have ransacked shops, dragging with them empty suitcases to fill with booty. Arsonists have burnt trucks along a major motorway.
