Redi Tlhabi Pleads Twitter Stop Spreading Fake Images Of The Man Making Rape Threats Toward Her. Journalist and radio host Redi Thlabi was involved in a debate that turned sour quickly after a tweep who disagreed with her views, threatened her in sexual manner.
Redi who commented on Minister Tito Mboweni’s judgment of how thieves should be dealt with, expressing that with all the social issues that are happening in the world, the nation shouldn’t have to also deal with the betrayal of the government via corruption.
“Unless this happens, what then would be the moral & economic case for THIS government? Citizens are pulling hard, businesses are shutting down, incomes gone, loved ones are perishing, frontline workers risk their lives, this was NOT the time for ANOTHER betrayal of the nation” Tlhabi wrote.
A troll who clearly is not a fan of Redi took things up a notch and made multiple threats to the media personality suggesting that she is a high class sex worker and that one day she will be sexually assaulted because of her opinions.
Redi immediately addressed the troll who allegedly stole the identity of someone else as his twitter profile, and is seeking legal action against the offender.
She an also thanked all those who helped her track the perpetrator down, assuring her followers that all is well and under control.
“Hi all. May I ask that you don’t spread photos of whoever you think is behind rape threats I’ve received. There is a legal process underway, subpoenas are being prepared. It’s only a matter of time. DO NO HARM so that your truth is solid. I have a great team on this. All ok” Redi wrote.
