Former Maties prof arrested after k-word outburst at restaurant | Cape Times

Cape Town - An author and retired Stellenbosch University professor was last week arrested in Observatory after allegedly calling a restaurant employee the k-word and making sexual advances towards a woman. Leon de Kock has been charged with crimen injuria, after an employee at an Observatory restaurant opened a case with police.

De Kock is the author of The Love Song of André P Brink, the first biography of this major South African novelist, and in 2015 took early retirement from Stellenbosch University, which allowed him to retain the title of professor emeritus in English studies.He apparently harassed another woman insisting she wanted his babies and then called her a “stupid girl”. The post received many responses from people in the academic field, as well as friends and family members.

Police spokesperson FC Van Wyk said: “A 62-year-old-man was arrested on Thursday, May 9, shortly after an incident of crimen injuria was reported to have been committed at a known restaurant in Lower Main Road, Observatory. Van Wyk said the suspect appeared in the Cape Town Magistrate’s Court on Friday and was subsequently released on a warning to appear in court at his next court date.
