"We would like to think that any true fan ... would never commit such a disgusting and predatory act against another human being."

Aussie hip hop crew the Thundamentals have spoken out over an alleged indecent assault that took place during their set at this year's St Kilda Festival earlier this month, in which an unidentified man apparently ejaculated onto a 20-year-old woman's back.

Taking to Facebook last night to express their condemnation for the act and its perpetrator, Thundamentals said they were "shocked and disgusted" to find out about the alleged assault, and their belief that everyone "should have the right to feel safe, no matter what".

"We would like to think that any true fan of Thundamentals that has understood the message in our music and followed our journey as a band would never commit such a disgusting and predatory act against another human being," the band wrote. "Furthermore, if any of our fans were to witness something like this happening, that they would at least notify someone who could help assist the victim.

"Everyone should have the right to feel safe, no matter what. We 100% support the young lady who suffered and hope that she is OK."

The band concluded their post with a plea for anyone with information about the incident to contact Crime Stoppers by calling 1800 333 000 or submitting a confidential report online.
