The family is now refusing to release the flashy motor bequeathed
to Kit Kat in an unsigned will filed with the Master of High Court. They are
now contesting the will which they say they were pressured to accept while they
grieved.
The Herald reports that Kit Kat’s lawyer has written to Ginimbi’s family demanding
the vehicle. “Our client is keen to have his inheritance released from the
residue of the estate and is requesting that same be done through the first
interim distribution account, a copy of which we are also requesting to
inspect.
“Furthermore, our client is willing to pay the estate
liabilities and related costs for his inheritance and to that end may you
kindly issue us an invoice for settlement,” reads the letter.
The executor was quick to publish a notice in the Press
inviting interested parties to inspect the initial distribution account, which
does include the proposed transfer of the vehicle to Zinyengere, and submit any
objections.
The Press notice published on February 5 this year reads:
“Notice is hereby given that the First Interim liquidation and or distribution
account in the above estate (Genius Kadungure) will lie for inspection for a
period of 21 days as from the 5th day of February 2021 at the office of the
Master of High Court, Harare. Should no objections be lodged with the Master of
High Court within the period of inspection, payments will be made in accordance
therewith . . . ”
But now the Ginimbi family have hired their own lawyers,
Ushewokunze Law Chambers, to contest the will, with the proposed transfer of
the vehicle being the trigger,
“However, the family’s suspicion around the authenticity of
the will remains difficult to oust.The family has always had, and still has,
unanswered questions regarding the said will…
“We must mention that the dissatisfaction and anxiety over the genuineness or origin of the will, coupled with a recollection of diverse events antecedent to the demise of the deceased, all culminated in the family’s resort to getting legal advice with a view to bringing closure to the issue of the will,” said Ushewokonze Law Chambers.
