Eyewitness News (EWN) reported on 11 November 2026 that the National Prosecuting Authority declined representations to withdraw the R26 million tax fraud case against veteran TV producer and Muvhango creator Duma ka Ndlovu and his co-accused, tax practitioner Maxwell Mloyi, who appeared briefly in the Palm Ridge Specialised Commercial Crime Court. EWN said they face charges including 18 counts of fraud, tax evasion and violations of the Tax Administration Act. The state alleges that Ndlovu's company, Kanoboya Consulting (previously Ambrobite), failed to declare income from work subcontracted by Bain & Company, which had been contracted by SARS, between 2013 and 2016, and that the company was declared dormant in tax returns from 2013 to 2017. The Investigating Directorate Against Corruption (IDAC) said a review panel confirmed the case was properly authorised. The case was postponed to 9 February 2027 for pre-trial proceedings; a bail-relaxation application is set for 3 December. The accused had sought withdrawal of the charges; the allegations have not been proven.
EWN reported that the National Prosecuting Authority refused a plea proposal and that the trial of Duma ka Ndlovu and tax practitioner Maxwell Mloyi, over alleged R26 million tax fraud, is set for next year. They face charges including 18 counts of fraud, tax evasion and violations of the Tax Administration Act. They have been charged, not convicted, and the allegations are unproven.
A court listing and a refused plea are not a finding of guilt. Other tax-related cases reported the same day include Kent Police charges over allegedly undeclared business income and a Malawi Revenue Authority arrest over an alleged fake tax clearance certificate.
