Thapelo Mokoena's back in the game after 'hate crime'

Johannesburg- TV personality Thapelo Mokoena is happy to be back in action after being involved in an alleged hate crime in January.

At the time, Thapelo opened up about the incident in an emotional Facebook post, detailing how an Audi with two white men allegedly purposely drove him off the road while he was jogging.

Thapelo was left with a broken leg, internal bleeding, as well as open wounds on his head and back. (Read more on that here

After that emotional post, Thapelo has been relatively silent about the ordeal. 

The good news is that Thapelo's cast has been removed and he has healed enough to get back to work. 

"Feels good to be back at it. I have so much respect for the passion & drive these 2 brothers have," Thapelo wrote. 

Welcome back, Thapelo!
