All Charges Against Norma Mngoma Dropped

All Charges Against Norma Mngoma Dropped. We all remember how last year Norma Mngoma’s estranged husband, former Home Affairs minister Malusi Gigaba, laid charges against her for allegedly damaging a Mercedes G wagon. She was then arrested by the Hawks and spent a night in jail. Fast forward to February 2021, the Pretoria High Court ruled that her arrest by the Hawks was unlawful and an abuse of power. Judge Cassim Sardiwalla also ordered that all information removed from her devices be restored.

It’s another victorious day for Norma in court. All charges against the wife of former cabinet minister Malusi Gigaba, have been dropped at the Hatfield Magistrate’s Court in Pretoria. The prosecutor assigned to the case announced the withdrawal of the charges in court earlier on Friday morning.

Speaking to Newzroom Afrika, after her case was withdrawn, Mngoma said she hoped one day the truth would come out. She also said she would now pursue a civil lawsuit against the Hawks, hoping to claim for the trauma she suffered.

“Whoever opened the case is the one who fabricated the whole thing, and the truth will come out. I already challenged, but if he wants [to fight], then come on – I am ready for anything.”
