When Vanessa Kamga was looking for her teammates at the stand, a man appeared and confronted her with racist slurs. Something Kamga shared on her Instagram yesterday.
- She wants to tell her what she was up to and she was very shocked and scared when it happened. It took a day before she really felt she wanted to tell, says Torneklint, who was in contact with Kamga during the day.
How do you view the event?
- That's terrible. You get angry and upset that people behave this way. It is totally unacceptable.
Will you go ahead and make a police report?
- We talked a little about it. We don't really know right now whether we are the one who should report to the police or how we should proceed. I was going to contact RF's (Riksidrottsförbundet) lawyers today and investigate what you can do and what they think we as a union should do. She herself has not thought about it and I have said that we will not do anything unless she wants to.
Is there any additional support for her?
- I talked to her today and asked if she wanted any kind of support, someone to talk to or something else. Right now, she didn't feel she didn't need it.
