Thabo commented: “These are the kind of people who want to be leaders.”

The incident took place at the Sunford School hall in the town of Phoenix near Durban in South Africa last week, as reported by Need To Know.

The teen, not named, was attending her school prom party, known as a matric dance in South Africa, when she carried out the stunt.

The casket was supplied to a family member’s of the teen by Jeremiah Naidoo, owner of KZN Coffins and Caskets, who told local press they “meant no disrespect to anyone”.

He added: “There were definitely no ill-intentions to disrespect the dead or anyone else.

“We didn’t think that people would get offended.”
