Section 5(3)(a) of the Admiralty Jurisdiction Regulation Act 105 of 1983 (the Act) provides far-reaching relief by permitting a party to obtain prejudgment security for a claim which may or may not be determined within the jurisdiction of a South African court.
The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has hit a taxpayer with a R3.6 million tax bill, including a R2 million penalty for fraudulent tax return filings.
The decision is significant not only for tax practitioners, but also for any business that could face a SARS audit or an invasive search-and-seizure operation.
