The Democratic Alliance (DA) commended SA Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) chairperson Jody Kollapen on Sunday for lodging an equality case against a Pretoria barbershop that refused him a hair-cut on account of its "whites-only" policy. Kollapen, whose commission received a complaint from a black man who was refused service at the Mans Hair Salon in June, went to the Centurion shop on September 24 and was himself refused a haircut on account of his race.
