Amanda du-Pont's case against Jub Jub

Amanda du-Pont alleged that her then-boyfriend Jub Jub molested her in front of her young sisters during the time they were dating.

Jub Jub handed himself over to the police after a warrant of arrest had been issued.

The case continued for months before the National Proseucting Authority (NPA) threw it out. Jub Jub's lawyer, Adv Ntsako Baloyi, argued to the NPA that these charges were fabricated following Jub Jub's 2021 interview on Podcast and Chill, where he said he "smashed" du-Pont.
