JUST IN: Model Mirriam Ngomani's legs broken in racist attack at Time Square casino.

Ngomani’s fiancé Tobias Zehetleitner said the attack happened at about 3am as he and Ngomani were cashing out their winnings at the casino. He said a white man in his 20s approached them and flicked a cigarette in his face as he was standing in the queue. Zehetleitner said he and Ngomani were holding hands at that time.

“I asked what he was doing and he said ‘what is wrong with you? You’re dating a monkey’, Zehetleitner said, adding that the man was pointing at his fiancée.He said the man’s friend pulled him away from the couple. They later met as they were walking out of the casino and the same man started insulting Ngomani, calling her the k-word and a monkey.

“I walked up to him and tried to reprimand him. I was calm and told him to stop calling her names. He punched me in the face and I retaliated. Four of his friends then joined in and started beating me up. The others pulled Mirriam down and started kicking her,” he said. Zehetleitner said he passed out but remembers seeing her lying helplessly on the ground. He was left with injuries on the head and face.

He said he was pained that people at the scene just watched as they were being attacked and no one came to their rescue.

What disgusting behavior. Racists, bigots & the like have such low esteem that they feel the need to degrade others. And people turning the other cheek, you're also guilty.

Shocked send the bastards to jail - FOREVER!

Arrest the culprits and put them in jail, we cannot live with people like this

its time black ppl stop being soft and stand our ground and beat them up and call them pigs. till when will we be mistreated in africa? why are we so soft ?

These perpetrators should be caught with all the cameras around Times Square , hope justice is served.

afriforum as civil group i hope you'll say something about this

Holy shit! The attackers must be caught. There must be video of the incident. Best wishes to both the victims.

This is disgusting they must all go to jail!!

Yoh m watching rsa in 1 eye

Black people we are poor, they will do all the evil things to us then after pay us...That just the way it is 🤷🏾‍♂️

This I am trained for. Mirriam and Toby have appointed me to handle all this. I shall leave no stone unturned. I hope the Management of the Sun Arena Time Square Casino and Sun International are ready for all this. For now we shall not issue any media statement.

They need to be taught a very harsh lesson. Have they been ifentied and arrested yet?

Kuyafana sisi, bazoboshwa isikhashana baphume wena you’ll remain with scares for ever

Trevornoah realDonaldTrump afriforum Come and see the genocide.

We could have had a better SA without Mandela.

White people in Pretoria are so vile

If you been to Times Square you’ll know the security there is tight, it’s a proper place...how could this happen.. 🤬

Did Unathi_Kwaza tweet about this

afriforum

Jissis fok!!!! Fok fok fok. Wat is fout met mense? FOK!

There should be security camera footage surely? Identify the thugs, broadcast their photos everywhere and then let mob justice take its cause.

Thank you Afrikaners keep abusing them until they wake up n realise dat de bloody rainbow shit doesn't exist n dat we need to fight back n chase this thing's out of our forefathers land.

Muzi01 Anc prepared the fertile ground for racists to germinate uncontrollably all over the country Therefore Anc government is a racist regime South Africa is a divided nation period

I can't even bring myself to read this. It's a major trigger! So freaking sad

If the Gvnmnt took RACISM seriously a law 2 criminalize racism would hv been passed by now bcos its a daily occurrence now & the perpetrators just get away easily with a 'I am sorry,i was stressed' & form of bullshit excuses.Ppl MUST TAKE THE LAW into their own hands. DearZuma

officialnizreen 😭😠😠

Basatlo refetša... They are going to finish us. Im so disgusted

Ppl just watched and did nothing cause it was a white man attacking a black woman if the roles were reversed, we all know what was going to happen

And they will go scot free while the fellow black South Africans look and wait to kill their fellow black Africans. I don’t advocate violence but if an African person had done that they would be burning and looting happening but now it’s white the black SAs roars on Twitter

There must be footage, either of the attack or if not, definitely the perpetrators!!

Jesus Christ😡 What the fuck😮

Funny the '2 sides to every story gang' is absent in the comments but 1' farm attack' story then they are all over the comments advocating for death sentence and all that... We see you!

_BoipeloS Tf going on 👀

dailymaverick HuffPost Our_DA afriforum where are all you white, who shout that your lives are under threat and there is genocide while...you all develop amnesia on cases lile this that contribute to racial hatred! Nikuphi?

Comments from the article..... some ppl are weird 👀. Hence I need a gun and I’ll shot a MF and scream sled defense. The minute I feel threatened someone is dying and m not joking.

Malema is our last hope ...to fight for this

Julius_S_Malema

I’m actually disgusted by all of this. Those hooligans but be caught and punished. 😡

Hang those racists

This is what Afriforum want ! Just because ppl are demanding thier LAND back now we become enemies, truth is truth, makuyiwe once and for all ! We rather die than continued being slaves

Building a special prison for racists who must also be subjected to hard labour daily is not not such a bad idea.

where was security?

Getting myself a Glock 48! Dangerous world!

MillionThrills MenlynMaine any comment?

Can twitter CSI locate that racist so he can be dealt with. Good people attacked for what! That racist must be exposed.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can this racist white man get arrested. ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Black people are blind , the person who did it or have an idea is looking at you all. Why when a good thing is about to happen to a blacks person , something bad happens?

The things that happen in Pretoria 😭 Obiki_

Looking for white people in the comment section

thabomoetji That is an atrocious attack on two people. The perpetrators must be found and jailed. Disgusting & shameful.

Remember this. What happened to the perpetrators? JusticeForNdzongana

ntsikimazwai afriforum niyabona

3am on a Thursday? I'm sure everyone involved was sober at the time and that alcohol did not play a role anywhere in this.

By a 20year old Afrikaaner, Who taught him racism & hatred?

Some people hey😭😭

😥💔

Are we scared of white people

Mcm nothing new, normal in the new ZA

I hope these fiends are hunted down and jailed bigtime. So very sorry for such an horrendous attack. Saps pls catch them quickly.

Will Afriforum be taking on the case? :)

thabomoetji Noooooooo

This is why i carry my things when walking to any place and, worse when i see a group of white men, i always make sure my things are in place. To black people be ready to fight when going to any place full of white men. Those people are dangerous.

CODESA

The perpetrators need to be found and prosecuted. There must be camera footage to trace them! Bunch of cowards & animals!

LuloCafe We not safe at all, we scared of being raped, mugged, now we must be scared of walking freely noba kuphi cz you might get attacked bcz of the color of your skin... I need a gun.. We need to protect ourselves.. Ku worse

ntsikimazwai 2019 and beyond ne.. Our poor black skin Bawo

WTF!!! 😳😳 SA is truly a haven for racists!!! The fact that Orania still exists in this so called ‘New Dawn’ says a lot!!!

Time Square we need that video footage

LuloCafe Julle moer maan sy ma se poes sies

Fight between two or more people must be confined to the scene before it is made a social issue by first helping the victim and police to do their job.

😔

whites don’t give a F but we gonna be patient with you

Where is their image. I'm sure the casino have cameras. Let's see the footage. Let's see who we are dealing with here. 🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪

Nooooooooo 😟

timesquareza this took place in your establishment. Where was security? This is vile and disgusting Yoh her a responsibility to protect all clientele. Ban all of those white men!

Law will catch up with this bunch and it should be brutal in terms of maximum sentences

ntsikimazwai Pretoria the Racist capital

😈😈😈

Kill these boers

This is beyond disgusting 💔💔💔😡😡😡😡

U yabona ke. We have been playing fair for too long

ntsikimazwai This is so sad

Lets mobilise, the war has started!!!!!!

Those who are always lying about some white genocide will not say anything about this story, those who will do will only ask what did Mirriam do to provoke them/ blame it on drugs/ alcohol or anything other than call it exactly what it is - a racist attack. Sickening

Sad but honest truth..welcome to the real SA..not this bullshit we being fed by these biased journalists like boJustice Malala n the co..This is what ordinary ppl go through daily without any1 defending them..😭😭😭...very sad

reading this makes me sick to the core.. hope they find them and lock them away for a long time (wishful thinking)

Totally unacceptable

As sad and disgusting as this is, the day I read the same comments from black people against the killing and torture of farmers is the day I have hope for our future.

Oh my goodness, prayers go out to the couple. Absolutely disgusting that people in this day and age can be filled with such hate that it blocks out any form of reasoning of what is right and wrong to do to another HUMAN BEING💔💔

afriforum did u see this?

As long as the government doesn’t criminalize racism white people in this country will do as they please.

This is just wrong, the MenlynMaine Racist behaviour in all shape& form must be lawfully put down.

Find these human turd stains and lock them away forever

afriforum julle gesien?

Yintoni ingxaki yamabhulu, sabenza ntoni aba bantu bengasfuni nje 😔

Maxwell__Ncube Why this things happens when some of us not around mara, the pain i hear when seeing a black Africans treated like this is very deep

This is not an 'alleged' racist attack, it is a pure hatred and racism. It has to be stopped!!

😭😭💔💔

Not yet Uhuru

Ye nina misoon afriforum do something about this!

Lets Purge.. ha ho nyyyyyyw wans

Whites are not talking about this disease called racism.. we blacks re busy nwee nwee asking ourselves why do they hate us so much instead of hmm ai. The Bible made us so weak we fear hell and turn to Jesus for everything

PaulivW eNCA dailymaverick ErnstRoets afriforum StephenGrootes karynmaughan and all you White cabal along with your CyrilRamaphosa and PresidencyZA MYANC come here see your country.

Racists deserve the death penalty period. That’s the only way they’ll at least attempt to stop

timesquareza you need to investigate this, it is not the first time such has happened. Camera footage and if your security personnel stood and did nothing, fire them as well. We need to find this racist and lock them up

Yoooh, South Africa is quite big for all of us. Why cant we just have peace - all races

Let me sit here & wait for 'oh no what did she say to them to provoke such actions, the story is too short,we need to hear the other side, oh get over your victim mentality ' type of comments & believe me that train is never late.

This is completely unacceptable. These 5 F*ckers must be found and arrested for years.

Kutheni singazibethini marn ezizinja 😡 😡 yesses

If it's not racism it's tribalism, if it's not tribalism it's homophobia, the world it's just full people who find inner peace in hurting others for no apparent reason, tjo.

💔

Next article 'JUST IN: The victims provoked the alleged perpetrators.' - Afriforum

I call BS story, recon she is trying to make some name for her flailing career. Side note,bif that's the quality of models in SA

Absolutely disgusting..hope they catch those clowns

This is so sad and disgusting

Im not surprised it's in Pretoria. The attack was brutak&those animals must be arrested&sent to prison, NO FINE OR SUSPENDED SENTENCE. I have yet to read were a group of black people beat up a white person because of racism, yet they call us animals, who is the animal here?

Racist are asking to die. In 2019, that behavior is suicide. They were lucky they had the numbers. I am surprised there wasn’t a mob to defend that couple. We should all defend anyone from a racist attack without hesitation.

Wow 😔

This is GBH and these racist fools must rot in jail. Feel sorry for Miriam and her fiancé. I hope they heal.

The only way to stop racism is to make racists fear acting out in public. The only way to do that is to punish racists severely.

Should be easy to locate the fuckers that did this through CCTV as timesquareza has cameras everywhere. I wonder where were their security guards when all this transpired.

ALLEGED racist attack. Let us wait for a few days what the REAL story is before making any conclusions . So many fake racist allegations , can this incident be taken seriously ?

This is Horrific!!! These guys are violent criminals! They need to be locked the hell up.

Bafuna ukususa impi laba. Racist people are braver when they're in packs. Do they really feel that they're untouchable?

nothing new here nivotele anc soo its business as usuall.

Read the article shame man no that's barbaric! 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

'she provoked him' afriforum

Video footage of that man and do correct Justice ,not prison

Ba mure white man 😂😂🕺🕺🕺

Oh nooo

The Land is coming

They will get these guys and I wish the death penalty still existed?! Disgraceful. Scum.

Let me guess, if dey find dem dey wl apologies & blame it on alcohol. I blv da cctv can have his picture inside da casino, dnt tell me dey can’t find him. afriforumjeug u dnt say anything wen hate crime happens 2 blacks but make noise wen it’s on whites🤷🏽‍♂️

Casino must share the video or any footage of the guy who started the fight... They are worse than Vicky and deserve 'a visit'

The problem with my beloved country is that our liberation was achieved through negotiations and not through the barrel of the gun. No real consequences suffered by the oppressor and as such there’s no real incentive for them to abide by our new constitution!

That casino should be closed cause seems like they are perpetuating racism what kind of a place which cant protect and promote bathe pele apartheid died after 1993 am not a monkey that beat must go to jail money wont help fix physical pain and insults hurled at her

Now that's fucked up

Oh Nooo🤭🤭

But to even think whites will ever see us as one of them is pure madness,🤷‍♂️

Why go to a national park if you hate animals? What do they want in Africa if we are monkeys that they hate so much?

We still have a long way to go.

afriforum niyabona phofu? Het julle gesien?

Pitoria 😳😳😳😳😲😲😲

Eish denialmustend

Said news racism is far from ending in South Africa .

No we nned to break their legs too. Violence must be met with violence, and this the endorsement of afriforum. Those white racists criminals are members of afriforum

Kanti where are the white people on social media advocating for non-racialism because out there in real life the hate is real...

Oh my word these guys must hunted and arrested with a matter of urgency. Police please do something hunt these people down.
