6habangu Mdudu]i bought me a car, thanking me for giving him a child.

³I then saw Mabandla 1xumalo coming to attach the car through a deputy sheriff and he said it belonged to him. That sheriff wanted to assault me. I recently saw him going round my residence.”

Mhlanga also told the commission that she had a Moint :ill with Mdudu]i. +owever, she said Mdudu]i’s mother, Minah 6habangu, contested the signa ture on the :ill at the +igh &ourt. 6he stated that Minah, with whom she said she had a good relationsh­ip with, told her that she was not aware who had suggested that she should challenge the signature on the :ill. The court, according to Mhlanga, said a hand writing expert should be involved to determine its authentici­ty. 6he said up to today, nothing had happened, more than six months later.

The master appointed a curator and when she wanted maintenanc­e money from the company, the attorney who was the curator called to tell her to lower the amount she wanted. Mhlan ga said the attorney later called to tell her that he would no longer proceed with being the curator because he had discovered that he was related to 1xumalo. $nother attorney, according to Mhlanga, was appointed and he avoided her afterwards.

6he alleged that 1xumalo institut ed frivolous proceeding­s against her in court and those matters were all pending. Mhlanga alleged that 1xu malo transferre­d large sums of money from the company despite that he and Mdudu]i were the two signatorie­s. 6he said the master was aware of this informatio­n.

:hen the commission asked what her gripe was, she said she had discov ered that there was a syndicate in the country, which she referred to as inyoka makhandakh­anda.

Incarcerat­ed

³There is no way that 1xumalo angasi knocker if he is not in bed with the courts, banks, Master’s Office and the police, because all things being eTual, he should be incarcerat­ed.

³:hat brought me here is the monster that has put this country in danger. :e can’t run to court or the police or to our parents because they are too old.”
