“I went to his house, and I found the girl there. We had an argument, and that is when he [abused] me,” Monnahela was quoted by the publication saying.
This incident allegedly happened in June 2024. She continued by saying he also allegedly abused her on his birthday.
A love triangle gone wrong
Monnahela alleged that the third woman involved works on the same production as Nkanyiso Mchunu, called Ithonga.
She said when she confronted him about the woman, he started getting violent towards her.
"We ended up arguing over this girl, and that is when he abused me again," she reportedly said.
The woman said she opened a case at the Diepsloot Police Station following the most recent incident, which apparently took place this weekend.
Mchunu allegedly said they had broken up following this incident, however, she debunked this, saying they only broke up afterwards.
Masechaba alleged that Mchunu is trying to make it seem like she is mad for making these allegations.
“He is trying to make me look like a maniac," she told the publication.
The case was reportedly moved to Honeydew Police Station.
Mchunu refrained from commenting on the matter as it is being investigated by the police.
