Cops have nabbed the two suspected accomplices of a nurse who fed her boyfriend’s alleged jolmeit dog poo.
The women will appear in the Goodwood Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday as cops believe they were paid to lure Ivodene “Dienkie” van Niekerk, 28, who was forced to eat the honde k*k and was allegedly beaten with a knobkierie and dog chain.
However, the family of one of the suspects, identified only as Portia, say she too is a victim of Elizabeth “Mimmie” Williams and was choked with a dog chain after she was also accused of having sex with Mimmie’s berk, Jubie.
The angry relatives arrived at the court on Tuesday waiting for Portia to appear in the dock, but were informed the matter had been postponed to Wednesday.
In a video which has gone viral video, Mimmie hurls abuse at Dienkie and forces her to eat the honde drolle from a plastic bag. She is also heard making reference to Portia.
“ Maak klaar, ek wil by Portia uitkom!” Mimmie shouts at Dienkie as another woman is heard telling her where to find Portia.

Mimmie, 38, was arrested for assault and appeared in court last Thursday.
Speaking to the Daily Voice on Tuesday, Portia’s 60-year-old granny says she didn’t lure Dienkie under the false pretences of wanting her hair and nails done, as there really was a wedding.
“She came to me and told me that she and her friend went to fetch Dienkie to do the friend’s hair and nails for the wedding,” says the ouma.
“Then Mimmie came in and attacked Portia with a dog chain.
“I am very upset that Portia has been charged seeing that she was also attacked by this lady who blamed her for having an affair with her boyfriend.”
The angry granny says Portia frequently complained about Jubie “ klopping aan” but did not report Mimmie for assaulting her as she was scared of Jubie.
Police spokesperson, Captain FC van Wyk, confirms the arrests and says: “Two females aged 25 and 35 were arrested (Tuesday) morning and went to Goodwood Court on the charge of assault with the intent to do grievous bodily harm as accomplices”.
According to a police source, the two are accused of receiving R200 for delivering Dienkie to Mimmie and cops are now trying to trace others heard making comments in the video.

Tygerberg Hospital has confirmed Mimmie works there.
