Emtee and estranged wife fight over assets amid divorce
After he allegedly transferred over R500K, Nicole Chinsamy obtained a court interdict to prevent Emtee from liquidating their joint inheritance.
Nicole Chinsamy, the former wife of rapper Emtee, claims he tried to dissolve their joint estate after transferring more than R500,000 from their trust account.
The Manando hitmaker was ordered to repay the money within two days of receiving court papers, according to Sunday World, so Nicole went to the Joburg High Court to request a judicial interdict.
Newsmen learned earlier this month that the musician, whose real name is Mthembeni Ndevu, filed for divorce in April while also appearing in the assault case that his wife eventually withdrew.
Three of the couple’s children were born between 2015 and 2018, and their most recent child was born on May 4 of this year. The mother of three states in the court documents that they were married in 2019 and have community property.
She indicated that she does not want to touch the trust fund until their divorce is finalised. Additionally, the court interdict is intended to prevent Emtee from borrowing money against their assets, frittering away their money, emptying their trust accounts, or selling their shares in the Africa Trap Movement.
“It is not clear from the notification what the reason for the transfer was, and to which bank account it was transferred.
“My apprehension is that it is a clear act of dissipation and an attempt at hiding funds from me by the first respondent, either acting alone or in concert with Dumisani [Emtee’s lawyer],” read the papers.
meanwhile, Nicole acknowledges that she is unaware of the value of Emtee’s shares, stakes, and/or assets in Emtee Rocords and the African Trap Movement. She, on the other hand, is asset-free except for a laptop, mobile, jewellery collection, and clothing collection valued at R100,000.
