Earlier this year Sithelo accused the Royal AM Chairman and his mother Shawn Mkhize, of colliding in abducting her daughter, Florence. According to TimesLive, Minister of Police Bheki Cele was also allegedly involved in the saga.
According to TimesLIVE, while hearing the case, Sithelo was sobbing and Andile was unconcerned. A source said: “Andile appears unbothered and bored. The matter includes discussions around the children and the Mpisanes ‘keeping them illegally’ and not returning them to her.”
The unnamed source added that Sithelo and Andile had a brief conversation during the break under the supervision of their attorneys.
“One of the lawyers said, ‘all my client wants is the child”, the source said. During a January court session, Mpisane’s lawyers led by Ntsako Godi denied accusations of child abduction and said they would oppose Shozi’s application.
There is no doubt that it is not the first time that the two have hogged headlines for the wrong reasons. In court papers, Sithelo reportedly claimed that Andile and his mother took Flo last year and transferred her to Johannesburg without her consent.
“For over ten months now, there has been no further communication [on her illness] … It’s clear that [Mpisane and Mkhize] had ulterior motives — which is to abduct [her]” Sithelo stated in her 24-page affidavit.
Sithelo alleges she was physically abused in their 2-year relationship, “While in the relationship I was beaten mercilessly and consistently. I did the best I could, and stayed silent, but now I feel that I have been through enough. I feel that I have been abused and pushed far enough by the father of my children.
“My children are far too young to live with a mother who is being bullied, intimidated and still facing abuse. I am a human being too and this kind of abuse has gone on for too long. I want freedom and justice.”
