According to The South African, Not In My Name International has called for the immediate closure of Zanzou nightclub in Hatfield, Pretoria, after shocking videos surfaced showing a brutal assault allegedly involving the club’s security. The nightclub management admitted excessive force was used but shifted the blame to a now-terminated security company, denying claims that the assault was over an unpaid bill. Authorities, led by National Police Commissioner General Fannie Masemola, are investigating multiple charges, including assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, kidnapping, and violations of privacy laws. The police have urged victims to come forward, assuring full support and swift justice. Meanwhile, compliance inspections will determine whether Zanzou has adhered to legal regulations, with mounting public pressure for its closure.
