He was fired from his R22,000-a-month job after a disciplinary hearing found him guilty of “improper, disgraceful and unacceptable” behaviour when he sexually harassed the tourism student. “She left the meeting and went to her friends crying. She informed them of what [Khanyi] said to her. They advised her to go back and record him,” Moyo said in his finding on Tuesday.'. This is roughly translated as, 'Think like a girl'. [At the hearing], she relayed that she was, in actual fact, scared as a girl.”
The commissioner said Khanyi, who represented himself during the nine-day hearing, challenged the student's recollection of their exchange in October 2018.
