There is joy and relief in the camp of Isibaya actress Zinhle Mabena after the Pretoria Magistrate court threw away 2 charges leveled against her by her estranged husband, Robert Ngwenya.
The lawyer of the actress Joshua Shapiro confirmed to the Daily Suns that the case of theft and that of malicious damage to property were thrown out by the court.
“I can confirm that Zinhle was in court today and there were three cases. Two of the cases were nolle prosequi. The prosecutor dismissed those cases,” he said.
“The other matter, we’re waiting for the police and the prosecution to provide us with the contents of the docket in order to look at the matter. But at this stage, we can’t say much on that matter,” said Shapiro.
Robert’s lawyer, Shani Van Niekerk said: “My client wasn’t present at court today for the criminal matters. There were three criminal matters against Miss Mabena, two of them were withdrawn, the reasons, I do not know. The biggest and most important one is the assault with the intent to cause bodily harm to my client. That matter is proceeding and they’re investigating the charges. The matter is postponed for the investigations to be done. We don’t know the date yet.”
