The thespian claimed that Buti Mthembu, whom he considered a close friend, duped him of the sum of R15k.
By his own account, Buti had promised him a share in a lucrative mining deal, and he had forked over R15 to be a part of the deal.
He neither got any shares nor his money back. Instead, Buti fled with his money and has been in hiding since. Exasperated with the situation, he had gone public about the scam, naming and shaming.
