Court hears Charlotte Tibana attempted to interfere with witnesses
Tibana and Nonyane allegedly defrauded three estates more of than R4-million.
The Polokwane Magistrate’s Court in Limpopo has heard evidence that Charlotte Tibana, a lawyer accused of defrauding three estates of over R4 million, has attempted to interfere with witnesses. Her husband, Peter Nonyane, also known as ‘Gagash’, is currently opposing her bail application. Constable Khutsiso Thobejane, who concluded his testimony, informed the court that Tibana could pose a risk to ongoing investigations if granted bail, stating that the Mathabathas were contacted telephonically by Tibana, who then blocked their number.
The state argues that the accused used the proceeds from the fraud to acquire luxury properties and vehicles.
