Cape Town – A video in which police officers can be seen assaulting patrons at a pub has surfaced on social media.
The video has since spread rapidly, garnering over 100 000 views on Twitter.
The first strike in the video can be seen landed by the police offer. He strikes one of the men at the pub in the face, causing him to fly onto the floor.
Throughout the video, the voice of a commentator can be heard.
“It’s amazing how black men in a blue uniform treat other black men. Out of the blue the officer hits one of the men so hard that he falls to the ground. Look at the size of the man compared to the officer, I mean one slap,” the commentator said.
The same policeman then proceeded to strike another of the patrons, seemingly unprovoked.
“He’s not fighting, he’s not doing anything,” the unknown man commentating on the incident added.
