Babes, real name Bongekile Simelane, was expected to appear alongside her sister Nondumiso and Thobeka"Tipcee" Ndaba at the Durban magistrate's court, after an unknown woman laid common assault charges against them at the Umbilo police station in March.
“They were supposed to come to court on Friday and when they didn’t, a warrant of arrest was issued. The third lady, who I believe is a celebrity named Tipcee, produced a doctor's note which the court found to be valid. I am not sure if they turned themselves in to the police or if they were arrested at a different location," Ramkisson said.
