The police spokesperson Aafje Botma confirms that Abbia Modise was allegedly attacked by a group of unknown people in the basement of the Rustenburg Civic Centre. She says Modise was admitted to a Rustenburg Hospital with head, facial, and body injuries following an attack at around 10:30 in the area. 

She says the police must, however, still receive a statement from the hospitalised victim as a result of restrictions due to regulations around hospital visitation as a result of the pandemic. Botma says she understands that Modise called the police to lay a complaint telephonically. 

Botma adds that at this stage no-one has been arrested following the attack.
