Cape Town is not considered a secure origin.
I appreciate that CPT is not a secure origin. But disembarking into a transit corridor on a floor above??? Only the D-pier has gates with 2 floors, E, F and G piers do not. So does this mean that all non-secure origin flights arrive at the D-pier? I am quite confused about this and wish someone would post a photo of this transit security control station. Dear Fabo sk, it is not that i don't believe you, i just can't picture such a transit security control post you are talking about, i have never seen it.
