Actor, Tumisho Masha says he is willing to be the sacrificial lamb to stand for the “innocent” men who are “accused” of abuse.
This as his estranged wife, Zozibini Mntongana has reinstated assault charges against him.
This past weekend, the Sunday Sun reported that Tumisho’s alleged violation of a court order has recently led to Zozibini’s reinstatement of the charges, following initial withdrawal of the same charges in November.
It has since emerged, in a statement by Phindile Louw who is the National Prosecuting Authority’s spokesperson, that: “Tumisho Masha will appear in court on November 7 at the Randburg Magistrates Court. He’s been charged with assault and malicious intent to property (MIP)”.
In response to this news, Tumisho spoke to TshisaLive, saying that he stands ready for whatever may come.
“Men need to realise that being bitter and looking to retaliate is not the way to respond to an abuse accusation. We need to trust the law. I might find myself in a situation where I am representing all the men that have been accused and are innocent. The law will determine that‚ but if that’s the case‚ then it’s also okay‚” he said.
