A senior police officer has filed a US$37 250 lawsuit against United Family International Church founder Prophet Emmanuel Makandiwa after he allegedly failed to fully pay for the house sold to him last year.
Senior Assistant Commissioner Annamore Jamu, who is a medical doctor in the police force, claims the prophet has refused to pay for the house he is currently occupying in Borrowdale.
The police officer claims she sold to Prophet Makandiwa House Number 42 Duiker Crescent Borrowdale West for US$280 000 but she only received US$242 750, leaving a balance of S$37 250.
Snr Asst Comm Jamu on Tuesday filed summons at the High Court claiming her balance.
In the summons prepared by Venturas and Samukange law firm, the senior police officer is claiming US$37 250 together with interest.
She is also seeking to be awarded costs of the lawsuit.
According to the plaintiff’s declaration, the two on January 6 last year entered into an agreement of sale for the Borrowdale property.
Prophet Makandiwa agreed to buy the house for US$280 000 and the agreement was put in writing.
Both parties signed the agreement and the purchase price was paid in installments.
