On 22 January 2020, Mike Stainbank, the owner of the registered trademark The Apartheid Museum® met with The South African Human Rights Commission. The Commission indicated that they are considering a review of the case of racism that Stainbank had brought to them on three occasions since the year 2003. The three submissions following the meeting of January 2020, relate to what Stainbank alleges are violent and gross human rights abuses, manifest in loss of dignity, physical and mental torture, destitution, loss of income, loss of property, dating back to the year 2000. At the heart of the matter are two White males, Solly and Abe Krok, who, with Gold Reef City Casino, claimed to have originated the three words: The Apartheid Museum. The evidence, according to Stainbank, conclusively shows that they made these dishonest claims while in possession of his 48- page full-colour prospectus under the registered trademark: The Apartheid Museum®.
