His son is not a bad person, but he must pay for his crimes, Ebrahim Slamang said on Friday outside the court where Naseem Slamang appeared after allegedly attempting to snatch a child in broad daylight at a restaurant in Florida, Gauteng.

What have we done?

Another family member who also attended the court proceedings questioned why people would come after them.During the court appearance, Slamang had bruises on his head and a blackened eye. One arm was bandaged and in a sling. His attorney, Eric Mahlalela, told the court his client sustained “serious injuries” during a “mob attack” leading to his arrest. He said his client sustained further injuries after getting into a fight in the holding cells on Thursday night.

In a video widely circulated on social media, a man wearing clothes similar to those Slamang wore in court on Thursday was seen jumping over a railing at the restaurant and racing towards a young girl sitting with two women. He proceeded to grab her, but within seconds a man lunged towards the perpetrator and rescued the girl.TimesLIVE
