**Kelebogile Rasego, a 24-year-old club hostess, influencer, and promoter from Itsoseng, was allegedly the victim of a violent attack outside Marks Pub in Hebron, North West, on Thursday, January 16.**
### Assault at Marks Pub
The incident unfolded during a night out at the pub’s “Thirsty Thursday” event, where Kelebogile was invited to host. She attended with friends, but their evening turned sour when a fight broke out between her friends and a group of women in the restroom.
“I don’t know what caused the fight,” Kelebogile explained, “but my friends were thrown out of the pub because of it. I tried to intervene, but I ended up being targeted instead.”
The women, according to Kelebogile, left her friends and focused their aggression on her, claiming they wanted to “make her ugly.”
### Brutal Injuries
Kelebogile sustained multiple injuries, including scratches on her face, bite marks on her finger and arm, and a near-severed nipple. “I just saw a bottle smash on my head, and then blood was everywhere,” she recounted. A man eventually rescued her and helped her to safety in a car, while the attackers celebrated and danced.
### Past Trauma
This is not the first time Kelebogile has experienced violence in a social setting. She revealed that a similar incident occurred last year, when she was struck on the head with a beer bottle by another woman.
As a promoter and hostess, Kelebogile’s appearance is central to her career. The scars she now carries have left her heartbroken and fearful for her safety. “I’m traumatised and always scared that they might come back to attack me,” she said.
### Police Investigation
A case of assault was opened at Hebron Police Station. North West police spokesperson, Colonel Adele Myburgh, confirmed the report, but no arrests have been made.
Marks Pub management acknowledged the incident but stated it occurred outside the premises, adding, “We don’t have any more information about what happened.”
### The Aftermath
Kelebogile expressed her anguish over the assault, saying she now fears public spaces and struggles to cope with the trauma. “I need my face and body for my work, and now I have scars all over. It’s devastating,” she said.
As she recovers from the physical and emotional wounds, Kelebogile hopes justice will be served and urges for better safety measures in social venues.
