A director of Zanzou nightclub, Neo Moela, has issued an apology following reports of assaults allegedly carried out by the club's security team. Moela stated that he was unaware of the incidents, which reportedly occurred in 2023.
Although Moela is not considered a person of interest in the case, he has expressed his willingness to fully cooperate with police investigations. "I had no knowledge of these events, but I am committed to assisting the authorities in their efforts," he said.
Meanwhile, civil society groups are calling for greater accountability and are advocating for the permanent closure of the nightclub.
To date, only one suspect has been arrested in connection with the assaults, but police have indicated that more arrests are expected soon.
