Club bouncer tells court of assault by authorities

A 41-year-old man arrested in connection with the Zanzou nightclub assault incident alleges that he was beaten by authorities during his arrest.

- Molefe Seeletsa

The suspect, from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), appeared in the Pretoria Magistrate's Court yesterday following his arrest in Yeoville by Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department (JMPD) officers last week.

He worked as a bouncer and is accused of torturing patrons at the nightclub in Hatfield, Pretoria.

His arrest came after a series of disturbing videos of the incident circulated on social media.

He was one of at least eight suspects being sought by law enforcement.

During the court session, the media was prohibited from filming the Congolese national, as an identity parade had not yet been conducted.
