The suspended manager of the Boulders Shopping Centre has apologised to Ndebele activist Thando Mahlangu after he attempted to chase him out of the mall for being dressed ‘indecently’.

Johannesburg - The suspended manager of the Boulders Shopping Centre has apologised to Ndebele activist Thando Mahlangu after he attempted to chase him out of the mall for being dressed “indecently”.

A Clicks manager came to Mahlangu’s rescue and allowed him to shop at the store and the store chain filed a formal complaint with Redefine Properties, who own the mall, a day after the incident.“I did not disrespect Thando, I asked him to cover up because it is not normal for people to be dressed like that,” he said, explaining that it appeared Mahlangu had been partially naked.

CRL Commission chairperson, Professor Luka David Mosoma, said a lesson in tolerance and cultural diversity had been taught through this incident.

He could have saved himself from embarrassment by apologizing when things got out of hand instead of telling him it's his mall and right of admission reserved.
