The Star reports Philip Brink is planning to sue the police officer for ZAR500,000 (US$54,000) for defamation and emotional trauma. He has also reported the policewoman to the Independent Police Investigative Directorate.
“[The policewoman] went online and posted pictures of them without knowing if they were guilty or not,” Brink said. “She also accused them of being involved in the stabbing of another young man who my 13-year-old daughter and her friends knew.”
The officer posted the photo and accusations on Facebook after her son’s mobile phone was stolen.
“Tonight my son and his friends were robbed of their cellphones by two pigs, and the pigs still brag they are going to stab them to death as they stabbed to death another child at the shop…,” the post, in Afrikaans, said. “They assaulted the children and poured alcohol down their throats.”
