In her statement, she said; “He became aggressive and started to punch me with his fists on my chest. He held me and took me to the balcony, and grabbed me aggressively by my neck.”

She then contacted her manager, who took her to the police station to open a domestic abuse case against Maphorisa.

Many are calling for justice to be served regardless of Maphorisa’s social status as cases of domestic violence shouldn’t be swept under the carpet.
