In the unsettling clip, release a week ago, Die Antwoord is accused of treating him (Tokkie) like a slave, abusing him, forcing him to play with a sex doll, and grooming him to believe he was the devil.
Tokkie claimed they exploited him as the group’s face because of his appearance.

Lewis told News 24: “The department can confirm that a home visit has taken place. Any further details in this regard can’t be divulged. At this stage, no further steps are being pursued against the owners of the premises [the Dorp Hotel].
“In general, once the child protection investigation is concluded, the findings are presented to the Children’s Court, and the presiding officer will make a decision on which steps are to be followed next”. said Lewis.
