There was minimal movement of vehicles on Monday morning at the Pretoria hospital where former president Nelson Mandela is in a critical condition.
The hospital’s entrance in Celliers Street was closed and police were manning the other entrance in Park Street.
News crews converged on the hospital on Sunday night after the presidency announced that Mandela’s condition had deteriorated. Most of them had left by 03:00 on Monday.
Even so, more than 20 vehicles, including the outside broadcast vans of local and international media, occupied the parking along Celliers Street.
A few reporters braved the biting early morning cold to chat near the hospital’s Park Street entrance. Some of them held cameras.
Several police officers were stationed inside the hospital premises. A police Toyota Quantum was parked in the grounds, near the entrance on Park Street.
Two security guards manned the entrance and numerous police vehicles patrolled the area.
