The man arrested during a weekend protest against the national lockdown will be sent for mental evaluation after swearing and shouting in court on Monday.

Provincial National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Eric Ntabazalila said on Monday: “The NPA can confirm that the accused appeared at the Simon's Town magistrate's court this morning.

“The presiding officer decided to keep him in custody and referred him to a district surgeon for assessment [or] observation for a possible referral for mental observation due to his conduct in court. The accused rambled on and on, shouted and swore in court. The matter has been postponed to February 10,” said Ntabazalila.Video footage of him at court showed him remonstrating with staff and asking an official at the entrance to remove his mask so he could be heard more clearly.

We all kwn jails are for black people... Ofcos he is mentally disturbed right?

Being Caucasian is nice mahn

Even the dude that was mensturbatin at Virgin active live on camera was initially banned then sent for psychiatric assessment coz jail is only made for black ppl....

Its very funny cos if he was a Black guy , there was going to be no need of psychological evaluation. He was going to be charged and sentenced right away .

White people tendency whenever they are misbehaving they have to be sent for mental health check
