Roodepoort Rugby Club said last week that it had concluded an internal investigation into an alleged racial incident and found no evidence to back the allegations.
“The club has conducted a preliminary investigation internally and have not been able to verify the claims made by Wanderers‚" the club said in a statement.
However‚ the Golden Lions Rugby Union said it would prosecute.
Its manager of amateur rugby Pieter Visser said after receiving statements from all parties involved‚ a decision was made to prosecute.
Visser said the official disciplinary hearing was supposed to take place at the Ellis Park Stadium on Wednesday evening‚ but it was postponed until next week at the request of one of the clubs.
