Four white South African men were each fined $2,700 (Sh216,000) yesterday for humiliating five black housekeepers in a video against racial integration at their former university.

The fine was higher than the penalty sought by the prosecution, which magistrate Mziwonke Hinxa said was meant to deter similar racist acts in the future. (AFP)
