5 thoughts we have on Nikita Murray’s statement
'The claim by Mr Maboe that Mrs Murray was the cause of him contracting the STI as accused by the person who made the video is irresponsible and impossible,' says Murray's lawyer.

Liquor Law and Business Consultants’ Vincent Bergh, on behalf of Nikita and her husband Matthew Murray, said the allegations made in the video were “wild”.
Maboe, on camera, revealed to his estranged partner Monique Muller the name of the woman he allegedly had an affair with as Nikita. Muller then claimed she contracted a sexually transmitted infection (STI) because of Maboe’s infidelity.
Bergh said Nikita took a medical test to confirm that she had, in fact, not contracted an STI and the claims made were “irresponsible and impossible”.
5 questions we’re all thinking about Nikita Murray’s statement:
Liquor Law and Business Consultants offer a wide variety of services that even includes business model development and legal advice. However, Bergh said the couple had not taken the legal route and have dealt with the claims in private.
2. If Nikita tested negative for an STI, then where did the STI come from?
After the video was released, it was assumed that the claims made by Muller of contracting an STI from Maboe must have come from the woman he allegedly had an affair with. However, this assumption was disproved in statement by Bergh: “The claim by Mr Maboe that Mrs Murray was the cause of him contracting the STI as accused by the person who made the video, is therefore irresponsible and impossible…Mrs Murray had undergone a medical test to confirm that she has no sexually transmitted disease.”
3. Is Nikita denying the affair?
Bergh said their clients were “perturbed” about the “wild allegations” made. The statement says the couple are stronger than before, they are “happily married” and have dealt with the “malicious video in private”. It does not directly deny the affair but says that they have dealt with the matter. Bergh added the couple did not want to be involved any further in this “unfortunate affair”.
4. When will Maboe appear in court?
