Mob justice video gets 3 officers suspended Three law enforcement officers have been suspended by the city for allegedly ignoring a mob justice victim in Delft, who later died. On Tuesday, a video of the incident was handed to the City of Cape Town. Executive director for safety and security Richard Bosman said the city was “disturbed” by the allegations. In the video, a woman is shown repeatedly beating a man with a sjambok while a crowd watches. The bleeding man is shown leaning helplessly on a pole in an open yard. His jeans are torn and stripped down, his head covered in wounds dripping with blood while his thighs are bruised. When the woman finishes beating the man, three law enforcement officers emerge. They walk casually towards the victim; one is eating a banana and another is seen shaking hands with a resident. The officers watch as the man groans in pain while residents take pictures on their cellphones. Story: Zodidi Dano and SAPA
