Radio personality Bujy Bikwa revealed his side of the story in the alleged Boity Thulo assault case, via a statement posted to Instagram on Thursday 7 October).

BUJY EXPLAINS HIS SIDE OF THE STORY

It has been reported that Bujy Bikwa allegedly assaulted Boity Thulo because of a conversation about ancestors and traditional healers and the radio personality has finally broke his silence on the incident. Bujy spent the past weekend behind bars, where he refused a male jail cell. He was granted bail of R2000 at the Midrand Magistrates Court on Wednesday 6 October. 

Bujy Bikwa starts off by saying he has been victimised because he was not given the opportunity to tell his side of the story. He went on to say that he attempted reaching out to the complainant in many ways but there was no success. He went on to say that this was not an act of Gender-based Violence (GBV) as people were torn between classifying the incident as GBV or alleged assault.

“I have been accused of GBV which in no way sits well with me as I have been labelled as an abuser which I am not and it saddens me to see how this has spiraled out with people believing and siding with one side of the story,” wrote Bikwa.

BUJY CONFESSES TO THROWING A GLASS

Bujy explained his side of the story saying that he was told his surname is the reason his career is not growing.

“I was verbally abused and told my surname has no relation to who I am and because of that, that is why my career is not going anywhere in terms of growth, in-fact ‘what is it that I do in the media industry because I’m actually nothing!’,” he continued. 

He went on to claim that he was physically assaulted as well.

“During a verbal confrontation, I was then physically assaulted, kicked and punched while being told that ‘I’m a man, I must take it’. The pain and suffering of having to let a woman abuse me verbally and physically while trying to contain myself and holding her hands to stop was not enough, until the witnesses managed to defuse the situation,” he added. 

Bujy then seemingly confesses to throwing the glass at Boity, which he says was unintentional and out of frustration. A picture of Boity from the night was shared on social media where she is seen with blood all over clothing. Take a look here.

“With a glass in my hand, I unintentionally threw it out of frustration. Without any intention to cause physical harm,” he added. 

BUJY OPENS COUNTER COMMON ASSAULT CASE

The radio personality revealed that he opened a counter case of common assault.

“I also opened a counter case of common assault against the culprit for physically attacking me and after being in pain from the injuries I sustained for seven days, being held in police custody, I have received medical attention and have filed my medical records towards my counter case,” he added.
