“In the light of the serious allegations levelled against we’ve decided to step away from all public engagements until such time that this matter has been resolved and the law has taken its course,” said DJ Fresh and DJ Euphonik, in response to the allegations of rape.

Both DJ Fresh (Thato Sikwane) and Euphonik (Themba Nkosi) will no longer feature on the line-up on 94.7 or KFM.

Primedia Broadcasting confirmed the company had reached a mutual decision for DJ Fresh and Euphonik to step down from the radio stations.

A rape case was opened against the two renowned South African radio personalities earlier this week. A Twitter user accused the pair of allegedly drugging and raping her in 2011.

@DJFreshSA @euphonik will you ever acknowledge drunking me & further raping me?” read the tweet sent on January 11.

“I was completed drugged I don’t whether you BOTH raped me or 1 of you did & you later laughed about it the next morning saying we (me & 3 girls) were so drunk we kept blacking out.

On DJ Fresh’s Twitter feed some social media users say they would like for a court to decide their fate, while others accuse the woman of lying.
