Banking documents of alleged drug kingpin Fadwaan “Vet”’ Murphy’s business including transactions involving two homes and two trucks he had bought have been handed over to his legal team to study.
Details of the amounts involved in these cash purchases, including a Scania truck and two properties in Worcester and Strand, are yet to be revealed.
Banking documents from Nedbank transactions for Murphy’s business Ulterior Trading CC, which is listed as accused number six in his trial, were also handed over to the defence to study.
A decision over whether these documents can be accepted into evidence in court is yet to be made.
Last week the court heard that Murphy had bought a R2.4 million house in hard cash.
The State on Wednesday called estate agent Allison Airey-Spengle from Seeff Real Estate Agents, who testified Murphy purchased a home in March 2015.
The house in Clydebank Crescent, Parklands, cost R2.5m, and Murphy paid it in cash, instead of through a bond in the name of one of his companies, Ulterior Trading, the court heard.
Murphy, 44, his ex-wife Shafieka Murphy, sister Glenda Bird and four others face 239 charges relating to racketeering, money laundering, drug dealing and charges under the Prevention of Organised Crime Act.
The case continues on Monday.
Prosecutors will set out to prove that Murphy and his co-accused used his business as a criminal enterprise.
