Brown’s lawyers to work with curators

According to a report on the Mail & Guardian Online site, Brown\'s attorney, John Hunter, said in a statement Brown had not opposed Tuesday\'s final curatorship order in the Cape High Court because they had ‘negotiated and reached an undertaking to work with the curators’. ‘Mr Brown had a very good chance of successfully defending the granting of the final order, but it was decided not to proceed at this stage for specific strategic reasons,’ Hunter said. He quoted a letter from joint curator Dines Gihwala in which Gihwala said the curators would keep Brown ‘fully apprised of our progress regarding the curatorship process’.

Baloyi was given an R8m loan, interest free, says SABC News. Baloyi\'s lawyers have responded by that saying she may be willing to make a settlement agreement. Full SABC News report
