Moja Love delay ‘deciding’ Jub Jub’s fate, will ‘allow law to take its course’

As SA waits to see what will unfold in the assault, rape and attempted murder case against media personality Molemo “Jub Jub” Maarohanye, the channel he works for has released an official statement saying they will let the law take its course.

Jub Jub evaded a throng of cameras outside the Johannesburg magistrate’s court after he had been granted bail of R10,000 on Thursday. He had been charged with three counts of rape, two of attempted murder and one of assault. 

In its statement, Moja Love acknowledged Jub Jub’s arrest and release on bail.   

“The channel will monitor the progress in this matter and will allow the law to take its course,” said Moja Love.

The National Prosecuting Authority said the case was opened recently after comments Maarohanye made on the Podcast and Chill Show with MacG last year. 

In his affidavit supporting his bail bid, read by his lawyer Terrence Baloyi, Maarohanye denied the allegations. 

“All the charges labelled and preferred against me, I deny having committed them in the strongest terms.”

On his Instagram, the musician posted multiple Bible scriptures with the caption, “No weapon, lies, or scheming formed against me shall prosper. Ke ngwana badimo. Batloung le Bataung. God knows my heart and the truth, which shall prevail #InGodWeTrust.”
