Summary of the POPIA case of Munetsi v Madhuyu and Another

The Western Cape High Court recently handed down a judgment that applied certain provisions of the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA). Mr Munetsi (the applicant), applied to the court seeking relief (a public apology) in light of Mr Madhuyu and another’s (respondents) publication on social media platforms of the applicant’s personal information which he alleged to be defamatory. The respondents published the applicant’s mobile number on Facebook, together with a video. The video prompted the respondents’ followers to contact the applicant, and thus resulted in a large volume of phone calls made to his number. The applicant claimed that such publication breached POPIA’s provisions (without any reference to a particular clause), as well as his right to privacy.
