The police in North West have acted swiftly on a video circulating on social media, showing what looks like more than 50 patrons breaking lockdown regulations at a night club in Jouberton, North West province.
The viral video has led to the arrest of the 54-year-old owner of the nightclub.
The country has moved to Level 2 of lockdown on Tuesday and even though bars and taverns may open, nightclubs are not permitted to do so.
The club was opened for a party on Wednesday night.
The owner has been issued with a notice to appear in the Klerksdorp Magistrates' Court next Friday or pay an admission of guilt fine of R2 000 before the 7th of September.
