This is not the first time that Bobby Motaung has found himself in a bit of trouble with SARS. Back in 2018, the Kaizer Chiefs manager made headlines when he was slapped with a lawsuit.

According to documents obtained by Sunday World, Motaung was served with a letter of demand in June 2016 but allegedly failed to cooperate, causing the taxman to pursue legal action.

According to the annexures, Motaung's tax bill was R31 million at the time the initial letter of demand was received. The amount then increased to R44.7 million, according to a final letter of demand dated June 2016, according to SowetanLIVE.

According to the documents, the football manager was cautioned to pay in full within 10 business days of receiving the warning. He appears to have ignored the demands.
