Sheriff seizes Justice Moseneke family firm's assets

The Sheriff has seized assets from Encha Properties (KWT1), a family-owned company associated with former South African Deputy Chief Justice Dikgang Moseneke, due to a long-standing legal dispute with businessman Robin Vela’s Firstmile Properties. This action follows a court order requiring Encha to value and purchase Firstmile’s minority shareholding in the company, which was issued in 2016. Despite multiple requests, Encha failed to comply, leading to a court-issued warrant of execution in June 2026. As a result, the Sheriff has attached movable property across several related entities and family trusts connected to the Moseneke family. Encha has since paid the required legal costs but has not regained access to its assets, prompting further legal action to challenge the seizure and request the return of the property.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a factual account of a legal dispute involving a former high-ranking judicial official and does not exhibit clear bias toward either side. It provides details of court rulings, financial obligations, and the actions taken by both parties without overtly favoring one over the其他.
