Babes Wodumo found guilty of contempt of court

Following their arrest in Durban on Monday for failing to make a mandatory court appearance on the common assault charges they are facing, Gqom sensation Babes Wodumo and her sister Nondumiso Simelane have been found guilty of contempt of court and ordered to pay a R1,000 fine.

The sisters appeared in the Durban Magistrate’s Court on Monday alongside their co-accused, artist Tipcee . Tipcee was let off the hook because she presented a doctor’s note to explain her appearance while her co-accused failed to make a compelling argument for missing the court appearance., the Simelane sisters told the court that they were unable to make the appearance because they had car trouble on their way back to Durban from Pietermaritzburg after one of Babes’ scheduled performances.

Magistrate Jackie Jonck said in response to their claim: “The court can understand cars break down, but I cannot understand why they didn’t present themselves after the car was fixed at 11.30am because the warrant had not been issued yet.” The accused have been ordered to present themselves to the Umbilo police station every Tuesday and will need to make a court application should they wish to leave the area prior to their next court appearance which has been scheduled for 24 April.
