'I'll Put a Bullet in All of You': Creecy Orders SANRAL Probe Into Businessman Threatening Women at Sandton Restaurant

Police are investigating intimidation charges after a viral video showed threats against women, and the restaurant owner confirmed a case was opened.

  • On Sunday, authorities arrested Zimbabwean businessman Lawrence Chamurwa Mudzingayima following viral footage showing him threatening to "murder" women at Vlamo restaurant in Sandton. He is scheduled to appear in court on October 1.
  • The incident occurred on September 18 in the restaurant's powder room, where Mudzingayima allegedly reacted aggressively after women rejected his romantic advances. Waiters intervened and removed him from the area after he became verbally abusive.
  • Viral footage prompted Vlamo owner Mun Manal to open a case of intimidation, which the Gauteng Provincial Investigation Unit is investigating. The video sparked widespread public backlash and calls for accountability.
  • Moriel Infrastructure Group terminated Mudzingayima's roles as Executive Chairman and director on Sunday, while Minister of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities Sindisiwe Chikunga warned the law will catch him "no matter how rich he is."
  • The Department of Transport is reviewing a R107 million tender awarded by SANRAL to Mudzingayima's company, while a case docket remains open at Randburg SAPS. Investigations into his business dealings continue.
