Hassen Adams.......The Burger King

Call to boycott Burger King

Cape Town - It is just over a week since the first Burger King in South Africa opened its doors and it is already courting controversy.

While Burger King is set to compete with McDonalds, Nando's and Steers, a call to boycott the outlet is coming from the People Against Gangsterism and Drugs (Pagad).


Independent Online reported Pagad urging consumers not to support Burger King because franchise owner Hassen Adams is involved in gambling.

“I must make it clear that this is not a personal attack on Adams because he is Muslim, but because of what he represents,” Pagad spokesperson Osman Sahib told the publication.
