The Meraki Coffee Roasters in the capital was vandalised on Saturday night after a former employee faced online harassment for wearing a suit.
A report of bricks thrown at the café window was made around 11:13pm, police said. A pane of glass was smashed and a note was left with a threatening message that read: “Women [expletive] don’t be men! Men don’t be women!”
According to eyewitnesses, the men who threw the bricks came on four motorbikes. When they failed to break the window after throwing the first brick, they broke the glass with a second brick and stuck the post-it note on the window.
No arrests have been made so far.
