SABC News correspondent Nthakoana Ngatane leaves her boyfriend after allegations of physical abuse.

The SABC News (DStv 404) anchor and foreign correspondent Nthakoana Ngatane has left her abusive lover after allegations of physical and verbal abuse.

Nthakoana Ngatane told the Sunday World tabloid newspaper that she had left her boyfriend after he physically assaulted her, accusing her of cheating on him.

Nthakoana Ngatane filed an assault case against her live-in lover at the Midrand police station a week ago after Steve Ntebele allegedly pushed her off a ladder while she was trying to take down curtains at his house following an argument and after she packed up her belongings to leave.

Steve Ntebele was arrested and released on bail the next day. Steve Ntebele told the Sunday World that "there was no assault, it was just a squabble and we parted ways".
