However, the accused denied the claims, adding that it was a mere altercation, and exchange of words, over committee positions in the Assembly.
The county lawmaker added that there was no physical fight during the disagreement, citing testimonies from those present during the meeting.
“Those are just rumours and propaganda by Lokales. Nothing of such happened. We quarreled and it ended there,” he stated.
“That guy is a cartoonist, he just wants to profile me for no reason. The hotel management and other people present can confirm this,” he added.
