Barber - 'Whites only' - SA
Johannesburg - The DA commended Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) chair Jody Kollapen on Sunday for lodging an equality case against a Pretoria barber shop that refused him a hair-cut on account of its "whites-only" policy.

Kollapen, whose commission received a complaint from a black man who was refused service at the Mans Hair Salon in June, went to the Centurion shop on September 24 and was himself refused a haircut on account of his race.

According to the Sunday Independent, an employee at the barber shop told Kollapen the shop had a "whites-only" policy.
