How a star liquidator fell from his perch

Publish date: 20 May 2019
Issue Number: 824
Diary: IBA Legalbrief Africa
Category: General

The fortunes of one of SA's most prominent and successful liquidators, Enver Motala, have suddenly and rapidly declined, with his business ethics and behaviour called into question. Now the SCA has made it clear: his 'disgraceful and dishonest' conduct means that its judges will not overturn the decision by the Master of the High Court to remove him from the panel of liquidators appointed to settle the affairs of companies in liquidation. In her A Matter of Justice column on the Legalbrief site, Carmel Rickard looks at Motala's rise and fall through the lens of the new court decision, and suggests he would be wasting his time to appeal any further.
