Challenges:

  • The key challenge in this case involved defending Faida Trading against the wrongful garnishment of its assets by Nedbank Namibia. The firm’s legal team argued that the bank had failed to follow due process, lacked the proper evidence for seizure, and was acting in violation of the client's legal rights.

Outcome:

  • The court ruled in favor of Faida Trading & Clearing Enterprises, ordering the immediate return of the client’s assets and halting the wrongful garnishment. This case reaffirmed Mugaviri Attorneys’ expertise in property and banking law, ensuring the protection of clients’ financial interests.
