            1.If you have an interest in the property, you should understand that it is now at risk. You are advised to obtain
  legal advice on whether your interest can be protected and, if so, on how to protect it.
            2.You are notified that the National Director will, within 90 days of publication of this notice, apply to the High

            3.If you intend to oppose the application for a forfeiture order, or you intend to apply for an order excluding
  your interest from a forfeiture order in respect of the property, you must enter an appearance in terms of the order. The
  requirements for such an appearance are set out in the order and are also dealt with in sections 39(3), (4) and (5) of
