MANZINI:Eddie Honwin,the Director of Edd-rich Refrigeration allegedly shot three(3) police officers and Deputy Sheriffs who visited his home in Manzini to attach properties as per a court order.
The businessman was owing Enerst Dlamini of Nkosevayo Construction after buying a BMW X5 for eighty thousand Rands(R80,000.00) and failed to pay the amount in full.
Honwin was then taken to court and an order was issued directing the Deputy Sheriff to attach some of his properties to settle the outstanding amount of three thousand Rands(R3000.00).
But court documents suggest that, the matter “has been withdrawn by the Prosecutor” who cited lack of evidence and worth-noting, three(3) police officers and two(2) Deputy Sheriffs who survived the shooting were witnesses in the matter.
The businessman is now expected to pay over one hundred thousand Rands(R100,000.00) as the matter accumulated legal costs apart from the initial R3000,00.
Eddie Honwin was arrested last year for the attempted murder cases that were subsequently withdrawn last week.
