Notorious bouncers face legal action

Mathew Masinge

TAMBA Events (Pvt) Ltd, through their lawyers, have issued a cease-and-desist letter to the rogue bouncers who went viral on social media for brandishing knives during a nasty brawl at Pabloz Night Club last weekend.

The company, which recently hosted the inaugural Fio Fest at Takashinga Cricket Club, also claims to have been targeted by the same scoundrels.

The letter written by Coghlan, Welsh and Guest Legal Practitioners, is addressed to thug bouncers, Gideon Sanyangore, Blessing Kumunda, Brandon Chipunza, Last Saka and Stanley Mafukidze, who are accused of disrupting local entertainment shows.

In the letter, the lawyers have threatened action against the five if they ever attend or disrupt their client’s events.

“Reference is made to the matter above in which we act on behalf of Tamba Events (Pvt) Ltd (our client).

“We are advised that you have been disrupting events hosted by our client by imposing yourself at the gate and collecting gate takings from the attendees without our client’s consent.

“Your conduct amounts to a criminal offence and you will be liable to a fine or imprisonment or both.

“Furthermore, we are instructed to notify you to stop attending and disrupting our client’s events,” wrote Coghlan, Welsh and Guest Legal Practitioners.

Tamba Events have for now refrained from taking any legal action against the bouncers.

“By way of a gesture of goodwill, our client will refrain from taking immediate action. However, should you fail to comply with the request set above, a criminal complaint will be laid against you.

“Furthermore, civil proceedings will be instituted against you for the recovery of any loss caused by your unlawful actions.

“We are looking forward to your co-operation on this matter,” reads the letter.
