Cape Town – A claim has been lodged in the Equality Court for damages amounting to R150 000 by the mother of a former Grade 9 Sans Souci Girls' High School pupil who was allegedly slapped by her Afrikaans teacher at the beginning of last month.
"This appears to be nothing more than a vexatious attempt to obtain financial gain as a result of an incident which was in fact instigated by lack of discipline, unruly behaviour and extreme provocative conduct. We are therefore of the opinion that this claim has no legal basis and should be dismissed."
Booth told EWN on Friday Venter was found not guilty of assault and that it's counselling and not anger management sessions she must attend, as had been reported. The aggrieved child's lawyers had said before her hearing the mother had no confidence it would be "fair or impartial".
