Update on the Case of Alleged Racist Raymond Slabbert
In the ongoing matter involving the alleged racist known as Raymond Slabbert, community member Melekile Peyi Mlungwana visited the Chatty Police Station in Booysens Park today to follow up on the case.
Mlungwana met with Constable Kupi and Detective Mbasa, who advised that the police are unable to proceed with the case at this stage. According to Detective Mbasa, they can only take action once there is confirmation of the existence and whereabouts of the person identified as Raymond Slabbert.
He further explained that there is a possibility the suspect could be using a fake identity or social media account, making it difficult to pursue a criminal case without concrete evidence.
Detective Mbasa recommended that Mlungwana approach the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC), as the matter falls within their mandate to investigate alleged human rights violations and online racial abuse.
