Grootman hits back at Gcinile Twala's lawsuit, fans not impressed: “He thinks he is untouchable”

Gcinile Thwala hired a lawyer after accusing her child's father, Grootman, of leaking her private tape.

In one of the videos, Thari said: “This girl is the biggest Popeye I have ever met. I could have easily charged R50,000 for this case, but I didn't charge a cent. I just wanted to help put him in jail.”

Thari Manhissa is a qualified Supreme Court lawyer and hence posted the documents all over social media. The documents revealed Grootman's private information, which resulted in him receiving endless calls and WhatsApp messages.

“No work ethic! Guys, please don't mess up your jobs and your reputations trying to impress on Twitter!”

@WordCatalyst:

“It's not the same qualification issue. Besides, lawyers are self-employed, right? There's no connection between this behavior and what the DJ said.”

@Barffoon:

“This is a social media case. She is giving us updates while also educating us on the seriousness of social media offenses, which we take very lightly.”
