Hitler-loving racist in SAHRC's crosshairs

Racist Henrico Barnard

Facebook


A young man who calls himself Henrico Barnard has caught the attention of social media users following his response to the shooting incident in Muldersdrift this week.

A guest at the Misty Hill Lodge in Muldersdrift was shot in the head by members of police after he tried to disarm a female police officer while daring her to shoot him.

Len Cloete is currently under police guard in hospital.

Barnard refers to himself on TikTok as a gay witch who dabbles in BDSM (the practice of consensually tying, binding, or restraining a partner for erotic, aesthetic, or somatosensory stimulation).

In a video posted on his account, he uses the K-word 12 times and threatens to kill any police officer who tries to arrest him.

In several other videos posted on his account, he uses the "K" word multiple times and openly claims to be a fan of Adolf Hitler.

He also encourages the murder of black people who he refers to as parasites.

The videos have since been deleted, in a new video posted on Wednesday he apologised and said he overreacted due to the shock he experienced from seeing the Muldersdrift video.

Social media users reacted in shock to his posts, tagging in the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) and asking SAPS and the EFF to respond.

The SAHRC told Algoa FM News that they are aware of the videos and have already notified their legal team.

Former Estate Agent Vikcky Momberg was famously the first South African to receive a prison sentence for using the K-word - no-less than 48 times in an angry tirade against a police officer at an accident scene.

In 2018, former businessman Adam Catzavelos made headlines when a video went viral of him celebrating the fact that there were no "K" people in sight on a beach in Greece where he was on holiday.

Catzavelos' case ended up in the Equality Court where he was sentenced to community service and a fine of R150 000.
