********* Behavior towards commuters

On the 18/10 at around 06:45, Prasa officials were on the 06:33 train to cape town & were asking commuters for tickets & I did not have a ticket as I didn't have the time to purchase a ticket. I was advised by a Prasa official on Crawford station that I could purchase a ticket on the train from a Prasa official & explain to them that I was running for the train & couldn't purchase a ticket & they would assist but instead I was told by the Prasa officials that I must pay more then the normal ticket price & if I don't, then ill be fined for not having a ticket. I was told by Mr. Anthony Erasmus that the prasa officials on crawford station didn't give me the correct information regarding purchasing a ticket on the train & I was basically intimidated by the officials on the train, which I do find to be ********* & wrong outright. I wasn't given the correct information in the first instance, which I feel isn't my fault & was made to pay unnecessarily as I was advised incorrectly in the first place.
