Gabuza In Trouble With The Law, Court Date Set
Experienced TS Galaxy striker Thamsanqa Gabuza is expected to appear in the Alexandra Magistrate Court in Johannesburg, as reported by Daily Sun.
Earlier this week, it was confirmed by the police to the Siya crew that a PSL player has had a case of attempted rape and malicious damage to property opened against him at Bramley Police Station in Jo'burg.

At the time, the authorities confirmed that no arrest had been made yet although investigations have been underway.
It has since emerged that the player in question is Gabuza, as per media reports, and it has been confirmed that he is set to appear in court this morning.
The 36-year-old striker was arrested yesterday following the charges laid against him by his ex-girlfriend who is 31-years-old.
It is alleged that the woman claims that the Newcastle-born player damaged her laptop and cellphone during an incident which took place at her residence in Sandton on November 11.
During his time with Orlando Pirates in 2017, Gabuza was accused of domestic violence and was arrested for physically abusing his girlfriend at the time, Boitshoko Tala.

In a separate incident yesterday, Gabuza's former Pirates teammate Thembinkosi Lorch was handed a three-year direct imprisonment order in the Randburg Magistrates Court although it was suspended for five years with conditions.
Lorch was found guilty in June of assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm for strangling and hitting his girlfriend at the time in 2020.
