CAPE TOWN – Former Bafana Bafana goalkeeper Brilliant Khuzwayo recovers in hospital after being stabbed in an altercation at Mangosuthu University of Technology in Umlazi.
According to ENCA, Khuzwayo, who has three international caps to his name, also faces one charge of assault due to a counter-charge filed by his alleged attacker.
KZN police spokesman Jay Naicker said police were investigating two counts of assault with intent to cause serious bodily injury and crime of injury.
Naicker said the two men were involved in an altercation at an event at the university on Sunday. Both men are expected to appear before the Umlazi Magistrates Court on Monday, Naicker said.
In a statement posted on Khuzwayo’s official Twitter page, it was written: “Brilliant Khuzwayo was invited to speak at the Mangosuthu University of Technology (MUT) sporting event.
