At times, the lawyers are turned away, making it difficult for him and his co-accused to fully exercise their rights, he claims.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no authority for a broad ranging power to stop a bank account, except where it can be shown that each and every transaction though a bank account is affected by or tainted by an illegality . I have shown above that my accounts are not tainted by any illegality. They in fact are accounts in which my salary is paid. No reasonable basis can be stated that my salary is of questionable origin,\u201d James argues.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the unpaid company employees, James is arguing that his domestic workers have also not received their salaries. Mortgage bonds, rates and taxes too have not been paid and he fears that water connections might be cut off at the properties that he is leasing to tenants. His insurance for both movable and immovable property is also at risk.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe same problem befalls my life insurance and other service providers in Namibia and South Africa. In fact, I have already received notices of imminent cancellations of my policies due to non-payment. If obligations are not met by myself as well as entities in which I am a shareholder or hold members interest, I will be blacklisted on ITC and this will affect my creditworthiness,\u201d James states in his founding affidavit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"alignnormal\"><!-- MetaSlider 271797 not found --><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":286245,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-286243","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
