Durban - Two British nationals entered South Africa illegally, via the eswatini border in April, at a time when Level 5 of the Covid-19 lockdown rules were in place.
Straight from making their perceived getaway from law enforcement authorities, the pair booked into a Durban guest house where they were eventually arrested.
The owner of the Glenmore Guest House in Umbilo and the manager were convicted and sentenced this week for accommodating the foreigners despite the lockdown.
Not only did manager Ahmed Othoman Elrabiey, 48, and Nazar Salman, 47, the owner, “intentionally” disregard Disaster Management Act regulations, it was found that the business was not licensed.
