SARS Raid and Legal Issues
In late 2024, the South African Revenue Service (SARS) raided the La Lucia mansion after securing a court order.
The raid was part of an investigation into allegations of unpaid taxes, amounting to approximately R37 million.
During the operation, authorities confiscated luxury vehicles, including a Lamborghini and a Rolls Royce, as well as over 40 firearms, ranging from handguns to rifles.
The raid has raised questions about Mkhize’s financial affairs and her dealings with tax authorities.
Impact on the Mansion’s Reputation
The events surrounding the raid have tarnished the public image of the mansion.
Once seen as a symbol of Mkhize’s business acumen, the estate is now associated with legal troubles and financial controversy.
While the mansion remains an impressive physical asset, the ongoing investigation has shifted the narrative, highlighting the complexities of Mkhize’s wealth and the potential challenges that come with it.

PSL expels Royal AM
Briefly News previously reported that the Premier Soccer League (PSL) Board of Governors voted to expel Royal AM from the league due to the club's failure to honor domestic fixtures and its severe financial instability, including a R40 million tax debt linked to its president, Shauwn Mkhize.
As a result, all points earned by the club this season have been nullified, and it will now enter the relegation/promotion play-offs.
Despite this expulsion, the South African Football Players Union (SAFPU) remains hopeful that the club can be saved, though the outlook is uncertain given the ongoing financial and administrative challenges.
