Eco-tourism businessman Fred Daniels obtained an interim protection order against Mabuza in February. He has been involved in a decades-long dispute with the former Mpumalanga premier.
The interim order‚ which was issued by the Carolina Magistrate’s Court‚ barred Mabuza from using his position to:
• Directly or indirectly incite or instruct government departments‚ state institutions‚ parastatals‚ government officials or land claimants from stopping or sabotaging Daniel’s business by‚ among other things‚ withholding permits.
