Before the public humiliation that has sparked outcry and widespread condemnation, Qholani was living his life normally, doing piece jobs to support his family. He arrived in Cape Town from Bhisho in the Eastern Cape in 2009.
A video of Qholani wrestling with the officers as he tried to go back into his home went viral on social media on Wednesday night. EFF councillor Mbulelo Dwane, who is also a local community leader, told Sowetan's sister publication TimesLIVE that he had spoken to Qholani after the incident and that he was a bit traumatised by the incident.
He said people living in the informal settlement had been there already for some time. He said they will be marching against the"inhumane treatment received by the community of the informal settlement".
