Zari Hassan allegedly owes R5 million
Ugandan self-acclaimed millionaire, Zari The Bosslady who is the CEO of Brooklyn City Colleges, which has campuses in major cities in South Africa, is reportedly owing the South African Revenue Authority (SARS) R5 million.
According to Sunday World, SARS obtained a default judgment against the Young, Famous & African star at the Johannesburg High Court after failing to pay the amount she owed. Per the report, the mother of five owed R3 million for personal income tax, but the amount increased to over R5 million after more than R2.1 million in interests and R19 000 in penalties were added to the debt. SARS reportedly sent a letter of demand to the star on 9 August 2024, but she ignored the letter.

Zari was allegedly given ten days to respond to the letter and arrange for a payment plan if she was not able to pay the full amount. The taxman informed the businesswoman that they would seek a court order to attach her assets if she did not make arrangements to cover her debt.
"A civil judgment is being entered against you, in which case a warrant of execution may be issued for the sheriff of the court to attach and sell your assets."
