1. This notice is addressed to Mr Ndlovu M and any other persons who may have an interest in the property
described above.
Take notice that:
2) 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.
3) You are notified that the National Director will, within 90 days of publication of this notice, apply to the High
Court under section 48 of the POCA for an order declaring the property forfeit to the state. The order will remain
in force until the application for a forfeiture order is finalised, and until any forfeiture order that is made is
satisfied.
4) 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 sections 39(3),
(4) and (5) of the POCA. Appearance must comply with these requirements.
5) Your intention is specifically drawn to the 14-day time limit prescribed in section 39(4) for the entry of an
appearance referred to in paragraph 4 above.
6) If you enter an appearance in terms of the order you will be entitled to be given 14 days' notice of the
application by the applicant for a forfeiture order in respect of the property.
7) If you fail to enter an appearance in terms of the order or to comply with the above requirements, you will
not be given notice of the application for a forfeiture order and you will not be entitled to appear at the hearing of
the application. In such a case, the court may grant a default order forfeiting the property to the state under
section 53 of the POCA.
8) You may, on good cause shown (including the non-availability of any other suitable remedy to protect your
legitimate rights or interests), on 3 days' notice in urgent instances and at least 7 days' notice in other instances
to the applicant, and within 8 days of becoming aware of the order, apply for reconsideration of the order.
9) You are specifically advised that even if you intend to apply for reconsideration of the preservation order in
this case, you must, in addition, comply with paragraphs 4 and 5 above if you intend to oppose the forfeiture
application at a later date. Failure to do so can result in a forfeiture order being granted against the property by
default and without further notice to you.
10) Whenever this order states that you must deliver or serve any notice, affidavit or other process document
on the applicant, you must deliver or serve them on the applicant at the following address:
