A warrant of arrest has been issued for gqom-star Bongekile 'Babes Wodumo' Simelane and her partner Mandla 'Mampintsha' Maphumulo after they failed to appear in the Pinetown Magistrate's Court yesterday. News24 says the couple was previously warned to attend court after they appeared late. Appearing on behalf of the state, Ndoda January said the only outstanding item for the matter was a Family and Marriage Society of SA (Famsa) report after the couple agreed to undergo counselling. Maphumulo's lawyer Pat Magwaza said he arrived late after he attempted to locate the couple. 'Unfortunately, I cannot find them. I was told they were at their home. I have not seen them or spoken to them. I cannot get hold of them,' he said. The court previously heard that both parties had agreed to intervention from Famsa. Maphumulo was previously granted R2 000 bail. He was arrested after a video of him launching a physical attack on Simelane went viral. The court ordered him to have no contact with Simelane.
