DJ Sexual Assault Case Resurfaces After Public Protector’s FindingDJ
A sexual assault complaint against two well-known DJs is back in the spotlight after South Africa’s Public Protector released new findings on how the case was handled by the police.
According to the report, the South African Police Service (SAPS) mishandled critical aspects of the investigation. The complaint was originally filed in 2021, but the case stalled due to what the Public Protector described as “serious administrative and procedural failures.”
Public Protector’s Report
Public Protector Kholeka Gcaleka confirmed that her office investigated the matter after receiving concerns from the complainant. The report highlighted failures by SAPS officers, including delays in processing evidence and poor communication with the victim.
The findings have sparked renewed debate online about how sexual assault cases are handled in South Africa, especially when high-profile figures are involved.
Social Media Reactions
Social media platforms quickly lit up following the release of the findings. Many users expressed frustration over the lack of progress in holding public figures accountable. Some called for fresh investigations, while others questioned whether celebrity status plays a role in delaying justice.
Next Steps
The Public Protector has ordered SAPS to revisit the case and ensure proper procedures are followed. While the DJs at the center of the allegations have not been officially named in the report, the public scrutiny surrounding the case is expected to grow in the coming weeks.
For now, the spotlight remains firmly on law enforcement and whether justice will be served.
