Thembinkosi Lorch‘s ex-girlfriend Fundiswa Mathithibala has been arrested.

Daily Sun learnt that Fundiswa was arrested in Sandton on Thursday morning (08 October) after she was found driving under the influence of alcohol.

Her arrest was also on the same day that Lorch who is out on bail of R2000 made his second court appearance at the Midrand Magistrates Court.

But the case against the footballer was postponed to 27 October 2020 for disclosure of the contents of the docket to his legal representative.

Speaking to Daily Sun, Provincial police spokesperson Kay Makhubele confirmed that indeed Fundiswa was arrested.

The Orlando Pirates Midfielder fielder is facing a charge of assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.

Fundiswa who was driving a white Ford Eco Sport SUV was stopped by JMPD officers and blood tests were taken due to COVID-19.
