Amapiano producer and club DJ Themba Sonnyboy Sekowe, better known as DJ Maphorisa, was caught on the wrong side of the law on Sunday afternoon when he was arrested for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend Thuli Phongolo.
The incident of their assault was revealed in a statement deposed by Phongolo at the Sandton Police Station.
The gender-based violence allegedly happened at the former Generations: The Legacy actress’s apartment in Sandton, Johannesburg. Phongolo told the police that she had an argument with the Ba Straata hitmaker after she confronted him about an argument at a gig on Saturday night.
She said in a statement: “I confronted him so that we can talk about our argument, which happened the previous night during his gig.”
The actress said the acclaimed music producer responded aggressively and started slapping her on the face.
“He held me and took me to the balcony, and grabbed me aggressively by my neck,” Phongolo said.
A source close to the case said the muso tried to get bail on the spot, but was denied.
“He is facing a serious charge of assault GBV and he can only get bail in court for that, so he has to stay behind bars overnight before he can get bail,” said the source.
Phongolo and Maphorisa have been dating on and off for close to two years.
Gauteng police spokesperson Mavela Masondo could not confirm that a case of assault has been opened at the time of publishing.
