Applicants' housing need did not justify unlawful occupation; Proklamasie under the Group Areas Act held valid.
* Group Areas Act – Proklamasie validity and application – whether application is unreasonably discriminatory; follow-up on Lockhat.
* Criminal law – necessity (noodtoestand) as defence to statutory offences – scope and limits where housing/economic need asserted.
* Burden of proof – absent statutory imposition, accused need not prove necessity on balance of probabilities; State must discharge proof beyond reasonable doubt.
