Social cohesion advocate and anti-crime activist, Yusuf Abramjee has opened criminal charges against a KwaZulu-Natal man for inciting violence and hatred on social media.
Abramjee, accompanied by former Gauteng Community Police Board member Andy Mashaile and an attorney, visited the Brooklyn Police Station to open charges against Obatala Mcambi this morning.
In the Facebook post Mcambi who poses with a firearm of which the the serial number has been filed off writes: “I use my guns to rob and kill Indians & Whites. Please fellas, join me, we have to rape their kids with AIDS virus too!” (SIC).
Mcambi later posted “Kill the pigs.”
Abramjee says the posts have caused widespread anger.
“People are also opening charges in other areas. “We are sick and tired of this nonsense. The law must come down hard on people like Mcambi. He must be tracked down. Police must investigate the matter as one of urgency and we also need to establish whether Mcambi is his real name.”
At the same time Mashaile says there is no place for racism and hatred in South Africa.
“We are all one. We want this person hunted down, arrested, charged and punished. I came here to provide an affidavit to police to support the charges opened by Yusuf, a fellow #TurnBackCrime ambassador.”
While Mcambi has since deleted the posts, his Facebook page seems to be still active with various other photos of him posing with a firearm and large sums of cash.
