The National prosecuting authority (NPA) has decided against prosecuted crimen injuria charges that were lodged by Thato Sikwane (DJ Fresh) and Themba Nkosi (Dj Euphonik) against a woman who publicly accused the two of rape early this year.
NPA National spokesperson, Lumka Mahanjana spoke to News24
on Tuesday and mentioned that the decision not to prosecute the woman was based
on charges of criminal defamation taken and “lack of evidence”, “The NPA can confirm that a decision not
to institute prosecution based on charges of criminal defamation was taken. The
NPA is of the view that there are no prospects of a successful criminal
prosecution"
A woman on twitter who goes by the handle “Nampree” accused DJ Fresh and DJ
Euphonik of rape publicly earlier this year. In her tweet, she claimed that she
was drugged by the two prominent Deejays but they refuted these claims to an
extent that DJ Euphonic replied in her tweets by labeling Nampree as a liar and
an extortionist. Mahanjana further confirmed that all legal representative
parties were informed of this decision not to prosecute.
