Court order has big implications for land expropriation

He first came to know of the expropriation through a newspaper advertisement in June 2012, which reflected compensation of about R19,000.

In 2014, he paid for a private valuation which determined it to be R230,000. He submitted this to the municipality but never received a response. In spite of this assurance, he received a lawyer’s letter in 2016, informing him that the municipality was seeking court authority to evict him and his tenants.He then launched the proceedings which came before Judge Madondo, saying he still had no legal rights over the property, describing his “precarious position”, and alleging contraventions of his constitutional rights.

Would they have eventually built the houses? They way they handled the expropriation it seemed as if they stole the land and hoped the owner would just give up the fight.

This is EVIL is this how we treat our elders people

The constitution is not yet amended. Duh

Good for him! To hell with the municipality.
