Police Commissioner Khehla Sithole has instructed cops to arrest Mandla 'Mampintsha' Maphumulo in the next 3 hours.
Speaking on the SABC show Morning Live, Sithole confirmed that Babes Wodumo laid a charge against Mampintsha.
On the show Sithole said: "I can assure you by the end of today he'll be in court."
On Monday Mzansi went into a frenzy when a video of Mampintsha beating Gqom star Babes Wodumo went viral.
In the video, Babes is heard saying in Zulu: “You are hitting me, why are you hitting me?”
She also said, “Ungijwayela amasimba,” which means, “You are disrespecting me”.
Then Mampintsha is seen beating Babes several times and pulling her by the hair. While hitting her he is heard saying: “There are kids in this house. What do you mean I’m full of shit!”
