Protests in defense of the child, the known brand is accused of racism and shuts down shop (Video)

The Swedish fashion giant H&M has temporarily closed all shops in South Africa following accusations of racism against the young boy advertising the children's line blues.

Police have used rubber bullets to evacuate protesters who broke out a store in Bocsburg on Saturday.

Protests have taken place in response to the young colored boy carrying the most unprecedented logo in the jungle, which became viral on social networks.

According to foreign media, protesters were part of the Economic Freedom Fighters Movement, a radical group aimed at protecting the baby against racism.

Shortly after that, H&M announced that the store was closed giving reasons.

None of our staff or clients are hurt. We continue to monitor the situation closely, and we will open the stores once the situation is secure again. We believe that racism and prejudice in any form, intentional or accidental, are simply unacceptable. We note that our wonderful staff at the store had nothing to do with the product and the image judged in the wrong way”, It says in the statement.

Even though they immediately apologized, names known as Weknd and G Eazy gave up the contract to be the image of this firm.
