NDZINGENI – When a woman walked in on an ongoing court session and threw a
spray bottle of ‘holy water’ and insulted a magistrate, members of the
public had two questions.
Who the woman and why was she so angry.
The woman has now been identified as Lindiwe Maphalala, who had been operating a
preschool at Ndzingeni.
The preschool is the bone of contention in a dispute that involves a businessman
identified as Anderson Mkhonta and Maphalala, according to previous court
papers.
Maphalala allegedly blamed the magistrate court for failing to assist her in the
ongoing dispute over the structure being used for the preschool.
Maphalala has been complaining that the dispute has been making it difficult for
her preschool to operate, making it impossible for children enrolled there to
graduate.
In June last year, according to court papers, Maphalala was evicted from the
preschool following the dispute over the ownership of the land where the
structure is built.
The preschool had about 15 children who were stranded at the time as they were
removed before year end.
Parents who arrived to fetch their children were shocked to find their children
locked out.
At the time of her eviction in 2016, she spoke with this reporter concerning the
reasons of her eviction while a deputy sheriff stood by, ensuring that all items
were removed from the structure she uses as the preschool.
