Cullen Bay real estate agent Suzi Milgate has defended an alleged assault on Chief Minister Natasha Fyles with a crepe at the Nightcliff markets on Sunday.

Hours after being charged by NT Police with aggravated assault, the Cullen Bay real estate agent defended her actions and advised Ms Fyles to “get over it”.

She said her actions were a result of “frustration”, denied she had assaulted the Chief Minister and refused to apologise for the alleged assault, describing the incident as a “minor error”.

“It was just a cream pie out of frustration,” she said.

“She won’t talk to the people and address the real issues of Darwin.

“All the crime, violence, murders and not being able to answer any of us with concerns in the community.”

Police are investigating the alleged attack on Chief Minister Natasha Fyles at Nightcliff markets, where she had cream pancakes/crepe smashed into her face.

Ms Milgate rejected suggestions she had gone too far.

“What, a cream pie? For f— sakes. That’s not an assault, is a cream pie f—ing assault? And it’s fresh cream, how hard is fresh cream?”

Ms Milgate said the Chief Minister had the Nightcliff Bendigo Bank branch open on a Sunday “with all her colleagues and had the bank manager there on a Sunday for her and her colleagues”.

When told it was a 15th anniversary celebration for the branch, Ms Milgate persisted, saying it didn’t “add up”.

“So why did they have, with a politician a bank opening on a Sunday? It doesn’t add up to me,” she said.

Ms Milgate said she had no regrets about the alleged attack, which she insisted had been “a minor error” and that she “didn’t mean to cause her any harm whatsoever”

“It’s a slight error of a cream fresh pie,” she said.

“It was just out of complete frustration, not being heard, ignored for three-and-a-half, even four years, not addressing the crime, the violence and murders.

“All she cares about is her whole film crew and she’s so great and she doesn’t care about anyone in Darwin.

Acting Deputy Commissioner Michael White earlier said a conviction for the alleged attack could bring with it a seven-year jail term.

“There’s an aggravation within the assault provisions of the Criminal Code that if you’re a government official or your a worker executing your duty, there are extra penalties within the legislation that see an aggravation of those assaults.”
