Why didn't woman pay bill?
The middle-aged woman reportedly ate at a luxury coffee-led restaurant located at the mall and could not pay.
A video of her kneeling surrounded by restaurant employees shows her protesting that she cannot afford to pay.
In the inaudible clip, she can be heard repeatedly pleading, "Please. Please..." before a good Samaritan steps forward to her rescue.
The Samaritan, a sharply dressed woman in green, hands her what appears to be an amount of R143 and asks her to stand.
According to the video creator @Ninja, the woman settled the bill soon after.
"The lady ate at Java...and for some reason was unable to pay...but a good Samaritan settled the bill... God bless the lady in green and her friend," said Ninja.
However, it was unclear if she was detained or forced to kneel by. the employees.
