A woman charged with the alleged assault of Northern Territory Chief Minister Natasha Fyles has insisted there was "no harm intended".
Fyles was at Nightcliff Markets in Darwin yesterday when a member of the public allegedly pushed a cream-covered crepe into her face.
This morning 56-year-old estate agent Suzi Milgate was charged with aggravated assault.
"There was no harm intended, and it was actually a fresh cream pie," she said today, outside her office, in relation to the alleged attack.
Fyles, sporting a faint mark under her left eye, does not agree.
"To whack someone in the face like that, I'm going to call it what it is... it is unacceptable," the NT chief minister said today.
The accused was bailed to face a Darwin court on October 10.
