SAHRC, Eben Etzebeth agree to drop high court review, proceed with Equality Court case | IOL News

Cape Town - The South African Human Rights Commission on Friday announced that it came to a mutual agreement with Springbok rugby player Eben Etzebeth to withdraw the review application in the High Court in Pretoria, over a complaint that the lock racially abused four men in Langebaan, Cape Town.

"The South African Human Rights Commission and Mr. Eben Etzebeth and have agreed to withdraw the Review Application in the Pretoria High Court," the joint statement released by the SAHRC read. "The matter is to proceed to the Equality Court to reach finality in a more expeditious and amicable manner. Both Mr Etzebeth and the Commission are confident that this would be in the best interests of all parties involved."

The SAHRC said it received a complaint in August 2019 alleging that the Springbok rugby player, "physically and racially" abused the complainants in Langebaan during an altercation. Previous reports soon after the alleged incident said Etzebeth met with the SAHRC and "strongly denied" the allegations.

Eben has the strongest case for defemation. He should sue the SAHRC and close that rubbish dumb down!

That was the plan all along. All they have to do is be honest about it.
