The situation in Hangberg only echoes the rampant harassment and brutality by the Police on the poor citizens of South Africa. The fact that it was caught on camera, galvanised concerned citizens to say and do something about such injustices.
South Africa's townships can share multitudes of similar stories which happen regularly, if only they can be approached for such. Sadly though, people of Hangberg lost their eyes among many other things that no recourse may make up for.
The Police brutality sentiment that features in our conversations, is the reality of many South African victims that continues unabated.
