Tumisho Masha not guilty
Actor Tumisho Masha has been found not guilty of assaulting his estranged wife.
His case has been running for two years, and he decided to celebrate his freedom from the case.
Masha’s wife Zozibini Mtongana alleged in her police affidavit that he had assaulted her. She also said he damaged her phone in June 2016.
The case was however withdrawn in November 2016, but was reinstated a year later.
According to Masha, his wife refused a brand new phone to replace the old one, insisting that she wanted cash.
“In her judgment, the magistrate said that, in terms of the evidence, the complainant’s statement and the state’s witness did not corroborate each other,” reads Masha’s statement.
