Carletonville 'The lady taking these videos, she blackmailed the principal.'
Van Zyl maintained that the school principal, whom he referred to as Mrs Edwards,"had no idea" about the abuse suffered by the children.
A parent of one of the children who was filmed being assaulted, however, told TimesLIVE that she had confronted the principal with her suspicions after her child, who at times came home with bruises, repeatedly cried when she was being dropped off. "When I reported this to the principal, she said my daughter is an emotional person and I am overreacting," the woman said.
Her daughter was 17 months old when she was first enrolled at the crèche. She was there for seven months. "I took her out of the crèche two months ago. It was because of instinct. Every mom has that instinct. I couldn't force her to go back there because she was not the same child anymore," she said.
