Revelations From Zanzou Nightclub
According to clinical psychologist Prof. Saths Cooper, the treatment that some underage patrons allegedly receive at Zanzou is not only but may have lasting psychological effects. The footage circulating on social media shows instances of extreme violence, where security personnel are accused of using excessive force against patrons, leading to widespread condemnation from the public and authorities alike.
Further compounding the matter, National Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola has urged victims of abuse at Zanzou to come forward and file reports. The police have launched an investigation into what they describe as “barbaric and degrading torture” of patrons. This incident underscores the pressing need for stricter safety regulations in nightlife establishments.
