Two top cops have indicated that they will oppose a contempt of court application.
Both the national and Mpumalanga provincial police commissioners have indicated through the office of the state attorney that they will oppose a recently filed contempt of court application, after the alleged continued police harassment of Sithemba Coal and its contractors at Sithemba’s Mooifontein operations.
The notice of motion was brought on the back of a high court ruling on January 23, in which the court sided with Sithemba against the commissioners, interdicting both from interfering and meddling in Sithemba’s mining operations and preventing Sithemba from removing and disposing of the coal mined under Sithemba’s mining right.
At a meeting between the police and Sithemba directors, top provincial police brass allegedly ordered Sithemba to settle creditors’ accounts in two days or face a complete shutdown of operations.
