Richard Mdluli, South Africa’s former crime intelligence boss yesterday “evaded” the serving of court papers by the legal rights group, Freedom Under Law (FUL).
Yesterday, a sheriff of the South Gauteng High Court made two unsuccessful attempts to serve court papers on Mdluli.
The papers were to be served on Mdluli, who is the fifth respondent in a case brought by FUL before the North Gauteng High Court.
FUL wants the court to prevent Mdluli from performing any policing duties, and the case is scheduled to be heard on June 5.
The sheriff had filed a certified document at court stating that he failed twice to have the documents delivered to Mdluli’s house in Boksburg, on the East Rand.
From that statement:
At 16h20 I arrived at the above address and was informed by a female on the intercom that no person is to enter the premises and no documents must be accepted for any reason.
At 19h40 once again an attempt was made at the above address and the bodyguards refused to supply their names or allow me entry to the premises. They also refused to accept service of the documents.
Jeremy Gauntlett, an advocate for the legal rights group, earlier told City Press that the situation had since been “resolved”, but that it was “significant Mdluli had anticipated the serving of papers.” He continued that it “also showed his attitude towards the law,” after the attitude displayed by his bodyguards toward the seriousness of the situation.
