In the affidavit, Shebeshxt confirmed rumours that his partner, Kholofelo Chuene, is pregnant. This revelation comes just over a year after the tragic passing of their nine-year-old daughter, Onthatile, in a car accident in June 2024.

In his affidavit, Shebeshxt claimed that Kholofelo is expected to give birth in the first week of December, but did not reveal the exact date.

The musician, born Katlego Lehlogonolo Chauke, shared that he has an eight-year-old daughter who is in Grade 2. The minor stays with her mother in Krugersdorp. Shebeshxt claimed that he pays R5 000 child maintenance per month.

Shebeshxt further explained that he is requesting bail to continue supporting his family. He said that he contributes a total of R50,000 or R25,000 each per month to his unemployed parents. Shebeshxt said he also supports his partner's family with R18,000 per month toward their upkeep.

Here are some of the comments:

@spesh1512 asked:

“Isn’t he supposed to prove that he’s not a danger to society? Where was all this when he was violating people?”

@UkrainiSlav remarked:

“These contents in his affidavit are enough to make me go to church every week.”

@Moskito_Jnr said:

“He should have thought about all those responsibilities before engaging in stupid things.”

@CollenGumbi argued:

“Lol, criminals! They become more responsible when they get arrested. They don't think about the victims when they take them away from their families permanently. He must be sentenced.”

@MoMadibi questioned:

“All criminals have families to feed. He is going to jail anyway, so how are they going to cope?"
