The man who allegedly assaulted a pregnant woman outside a parking lot at the Featherbrooke Village shopping centre in Roodepoort, claims he was called a k****r and 'poephol' (asshole).

Romeo Makhubela, a CEO at Novare Actuaries and Consultants, was captured on camera shoving a pregnant woman, who was later identified as Bianca Fourie.

The company has since suspended him.

But Makhubela decided to break his silence and issued a statement on Wednesday, saying that he believed it was important for him to reveal his side of the story.

He said he was at the shopping centre with his two sons to get something to eat at Steers.

According to him, the altercation with Fourie began when she blocked several cars, to the irritation of motorists behind her.

It was at that point that a screaming confrontation ensued between the woman and occupants of a car in front of Makhubela, he said.

"During this period the woman was hurling insults at the black occupants in that car. After parking, my mistake was when I confronted the woman and asked her how she could hurl such insults in front of children."

"What I was not fully prepared for was that she would turn her rage against me with a barrage of racial slurs. At first, I was taken aback but, when she unceasingly referred to me as a 'k****r’ and 'poephol' in front of my children."

He said the woman followed them to Steers, where he slapped Fourie after he was overcome by anger.
