Home affairs minister Aaron Motsoaledi handed over documents to the mother of an eight-year-old child from KwaZulu-Natal, who faced losing out on an R8m foreign inheritance because department officials had refused to comply with a court order

The child’s mother was married to German-born Unisa professor Hans Schulze who, just before his death from cancer, adopted her in a traditional ceremony.In terms of German law, a descendant may inherit even if they are not named in the will. While a local doctor was claiming the estate, the German court said it would consider the child's claim, as long as Schulze was named as her father on her birth certificate.

In his statement on Friday, the minister said the mom should never have had to approach the court in the first place. Mdludla told TimesLIVE that his client would assist with the investigation to identify those she had dealt with.
