The DA welcomes reports that three of the five men accused of allegedly attacking and racially abusing a cleaner, Delia Adonis, in Cape Town have been charged with attempted murder.
According to media reports, three men, Chad De Matos, Aaron Mack and Mitchell Turner were charged with attempted murder, intent to do grievous bodily harm and crimen injuria yesterday following an alleged attack on 52-year-old Delia Adonis last month.
The three men and another two still at large, allegedly physically attacked Adonis and shouted racial expletives at her.
There is absolutely no place for racism and racially-motivated violence in our society.
We trust that justice will be done in this matter and that the tough stance taken by prosecutors will act as a deterrent to racially-motivated violence in our society.
