HOUSES of 70 supposedly “wealthy” homeowners built on illegally acquired land in an upmarket Pietermaritzburg neighbourhood face imminent demolition as the invaders refused to pay the property owner’s asking price.
Jagath Singh, 75, the owner of Leliefontein Farm in Thornville, previously obtained a Pietermaritzburg High Court order to evict the occupants and have the illegally built homes demolished.
