Mangaliso Ngema – the soapie actor who has been arrested over the alleged rape of his biological sister – has denied her claims in an Instagram post.
The former Generations star took to social media to dispute the claims after his arrest last week. In the statement, he accuses his sister of “psychotic behaviour”.
According to Sunday World, Mangaliso Ngema was released on R5 000 bail after appearing at the Randburg Magistrate’s Court last Thursday.
MANGALISO NGEMA SLAMS SISTER’S RAPE CLAIMS
According to Sunday World, Mangaliso Ngema was arrested after his sister alleged that he had raped her continuously at his Johannesburg home for two years.
The woman alleges that her actor sibling sexually assaulted her after a miscarriage and whilst his own wife was out of the country. But Mangaliso Ngema has rubbished his sister
Despite Sunday World not naming his sister due to legal reasons, Mangaliso shared a picture of her on his Instagram page.
Sharing his version of events, he posted: “Friends and family, it is with deep sadness that I share this post. I’m sure many of you have seen the disturbing news about my sister and her allegations. Please be aware that it is not true”
Mangaliso then claimed that his sister was “not well” and insinuated that she had fabricated her allegations. He continued: “My sister has not been well since the end of April this year. She was admitted to the hospital for psychotic behavior but she refused psychiatric treatment and absconded from the facility. She has been on a rampage since then, accusing everyone, her family and friends, of various shocking things. It seems like she has been taken over by bad spirits. We are all dumbfounded by this”.
Mangaliso Ngema suggested that his sister “needs help”
He continued: “We are deeply concerned as her family and friends. She seriously needs help and we continue to pray for her well-being. She is a good person who loves her family. [She] would never put people she loves through what we are currently going through”.
OUTRAGE OVER IG STATEMENT
Despite his intentions to express his innocence, Mangaliso Ngema was accused of “victim-blaming” his sister by his followers.
Many social media users also reminded him that this was not the first time he has been accused of rape.

Authenticlee_me: “As for being taken over by bad spirits. A few months ago you tried to sue a victim and then later you confessed. Could it be that you’re the one been taken over by bad spirits? Incest is a generational curse”
