A woman says she was thrown across a room and left with rug burn on her legs ,by Manitoba NDP leadership candidate Wab Kinew— allegations Kinew denies.
Tara Hart, says she had been dating Kinew in the spring of 2003 when the alleged incident took place.
According to Hart, she and Kinew had an argument which resulted in her being flung across the room.
Kinew, who is widely considered the front-runner for the leadership of Manitoba's Opposition New Democrats that will be decided Saturday, has repeatedly denied assaulting Hart.
Court records show Kinew was charged in June 2003 with two counts of assault on Hart. The assault charges only came to light last month via anonymous emails.
