Sonny Bill Williams has apologised to a photographer after using an image without credit, which led to Instagram taking down the post.
Williams spoke out yesterday about the photo being removed from the social media site, unaware that it was because he failed committed a copyright infringement.
Williams, who is
a devout Muslim along with All Black teammate Ofa Tuungafasi, claimed that Instagram removed a photo of the duo praying before the All Blacks' match against the Springboks in Yokohama because it was reported by a "third party".
The All Black midfielder took to Twitter and Instagram to question why the "simple picture" was taken down by the social media giant.
"Hello @instagram & to all that reported this photo. I'm wondering why this was removed from mine and @TuungafasiO pages?" Williams wrote.
