Thabo Sambothi who acts as an activist on the issue told Daily Sun on
Sunday that they were going to do away with the teachers who abuse
pupils from the Nazareth Baptist Church for keeping their hair as part
of church requirements.
The alleged teacher has been abusing two 14 year old pupils in her
class since the beginning of this year.
Sambothi said they welcomed the arrest and they were waiting for the
justice system to take its course.
“This teacher used to abuse my child in front of all the pupils in her
class since the beginning of this year. I remember the other day where
she went as far as gluing a bubblegum in her hair saying that leaving
long hair unshaved was against the school bylaws,” said the parent.
