COMPLAINT TO BE LODGED WITH SAHRC REGARDING KILL THE INDIAN, KILL THE CHAROU FACEBOOK POST It is deeply saddening and utterly disgusting to note the clear incitement to violence toward the South African Indian community by Law student Skhanyiso Edgar Khanyile. I condemn in the strongest terms, the blatant racism toward a community who has made magnanimous contributions to the economy of this Country. Khanyile’s statements represent a growing intolerance to minority communities - specifically Indians. Therefore, we must not take his statements lightly, as we do not know the extent of this intolerance within communities across South Africa... In the same breathe, we must not resort to cheap name calling and the like. We need not lower ourselves to the level of the stereotypical bile being spewed by Khanyile. After much consultation with my lawyers, I will be lodging a complaint with the Human Rights Commision as Mr Khanyile has threatened the lives and safety of all Indian Men, Women and Children.
