The assault case against a senior official at the Northern Cape Legislature, Garth Botha, who appeared in the Galeshewe Northern Cape Regional Court last week Friday, has been withdrawn.


The National Prosecutor Authority's (NPA) spokesperson, Mojalefa Senokoatsane, says the case was withdrawn on the request of the complainant. 

Botha was facing charges of assault in the Galeshewe Northern Cape Regional Court. This follows an incident during which it is alleged that Botha grabbed a colleague’s arm and pulled her back into the office. 

The NPA did not indicate what was the reason for the withdrawal.
