Xolani Maphanga, presenter of Moja Love, has turned himself in to the police in connection with the alleged assault of an elderly woman suspected of drug dealing. He will spend the night in jail and appear in court tomorrow.
Moja Love presenter Xolani Maphanga has handed himself over to the police, according to sources close to the investigation into his alleged assault of an elderly woman suspected of dealing in drugs.
In the application for the warrant of arrest seen by the City Press dated last Friday, Constable PN Zondi asked the Soshanguve Magistrates' Court to grant a warrant of arrest for Maphanga and Sibanyoni.The application, which was granted by the magistrate, reads: “You are hereby directed to arrest him/her and bring him/her before a lower court … at Soshanguve Magistrates' Court in accordance with the provisions of section 43 of the criminal procedure act.
The allegations are that Maphanga and Sibanyoni assaulted members of the family, who later opened charges of assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm - allegations which Maphanga and the station denied. The memo, which City Press has seen, alleged that the police had said they were commanded to arrest Maphanga and charge him with assault.
