Mliswa loses 3 vehicles over $136k legal debt

NORTON MP Temba Mliswa (independent) has lost three vehicles that are set to go under the hammer after failing to settle $136 000 legal costs arising from a matter he lost to a private property developer and Norton Town Council.

Mliswa’s vehicles, a Mercedes-Benz (registration number AEK 1985), a Mazda T3500 truck (registration number ABG 8923) and a Vintage Dodge (registration number ACB 8557), were attached by the Sheriff of the High Court on November 1, 2018 and are set to be removed on November 7, 2018 for sale in execution.

According to the court papers, the $136 000 debt arises from costs that were awarded to Maparahwe Properties (Pvt) Ltd and Norton Town Council in a matter in which Mliswa and his 629 co-applicants lost a High Court case involving land invasion in Kingsdale.
