The police in Taung have launched a manhunt after a former Hip Hop artist and socialite, Masego “Meezy” Sebigi was assaulted by her alleged boyfriend. It is alleged that, Sebigi and her boyfriend were drinking together at The Meat Brothers Pub in Taung when the incident took place.
One of our highly-placed sources, who refused to be named for fear of reprisal said: “According to information. Sebigi went to the bathroom and her boyfriend found her in the company of The Meat Brothers owner allegedly standing outside the toilets. The boyfriend allegedly poured the owner of The Meat Brothers with alcohol and the security removed him from the premises.
“Masego went back and had fun with her friends. Later on, she went outside and that is when all hell broke loose. Her boyfriend assaulted her in front of everyone and it was terrible because he even dragged her on the tar road.”

“A case has been opened with the Taung Police Station. I got the J88 filled out by a doctor. Officers handling my case have made follow-ups and come to see me to get more information to help with the investigation. I gave them the name of a witness. I hope he does the right thing and doesn’t choose to cover or lie for his cousin.
“Thank you all so much for your kind words of support and comfort during this very difficult time. I want everyone to know that no matter who says or does what about this, I won’t stop fighting for the person who did this to me to PAY! I want him to go brag about how a “mperekileng se Rustenburg” ka teng to people like him in jail,” she said (sic).
