'You black guys take everything'
Another Virgin Active gym was hit by allegations of a racist verbal attack against one of its members in Sunninghill, northern Johannesburg.
The latest victim said he opened a criminal case at the Sandton police station and was too traumatised to return to the club.
Lesley Mo***eng said he was approached by a man while cycling and accused of hogging the equipment.
The 35-year-old father of two said he was sworn at and called a "boy".
"The guy came and started shouting and said, 'You black guys take everything. We know this is your f**king country, but you do not have to control everything'."
He said he had heard nothing from the company despite two complaints over the past month.
"I am still scared. I have not been to that gym ever since."
The gym club said it would investigate the latest case and had a strict zero tolerance to any form of prejudice.
