Gcinile Twala scores interim interdict against Themba ‘Grootman’ Selahle
This court order comes after allegations surfaced that Grootman leaked a sex tape involving Twala.
Social media erupted with outrage, calling for Grootman’s arrest and justice for Twala.
The interim interdict issued by the High Court provides several protections for Gcinile Twala.
The court order specifically prohibits Grootman from posting or sharing any photos or videos of Twala.
This includes any content depicting her in sexual activities or nude.
Furthermore, the interdict restrains Grootman from harassing, threatening, or contacting Twala in any manner.
It also prevents him from making defamatory or disparaging remarks about her.
Grootman ordered to appear in court on this date
The interim interdict is set to be reviewed on 29 July 2024.
On this date, Grootman must appear in court to show cause as to why a final order should not be granted.
The court will examine the evidence presented by both parties and decide whether to make the interdict permanent.
This hearing will be crucial in determining the long-term legal protections for Twala and the potential consequences for Grootman.
If Grootman defies the interim interdict, he could face serious legal repercussions.
Violating a court order can lead to contempt of court charges, which carry penalties including fines or imprisonment.
The court has emphasised that the orders must be strictly followed, and any breach will be taken seriously.
Additionally, Grootman has been ordered to pay the costs associated with the interdict proceedings.
