"The case will later be transferred to our detectives who specialise in sexual offences and domestic violence once he has appeared in court on Monday," said a senior figure within the Gauteng provincial police.
According to police documents seen by Sunday World, the 51-year-old cleaner was cleaning a toilet at about 6am when the coach allegedly asked to have sex with her.
"He was trying to undress his track pants and she screamed and opened the door and ran out," read parts of the statement.
Micho's phone rang unanswered.
