Pictures & Videos – A Lambo and other luxury cars seized from Zandile Gumede

Numerous luxury cars have been seized, with their value-adding up to several million rands.

East Coast Radio reporter Nushera Soodyal took to Twitter on Thursday to post pictures and videos of several luxury cars seized during this morning’s raid on former eThekwini mayor Zandile Gumede’s home.

The cars are worth several million rands in total.

It was reported earlier on Thursday that the Hawks and the Asset Forfeiture Unit (AFU) arrived at Gumede’s Somerset Park, Umhlanga property, reportedly to seize assets worth R51 million.



The four cars featured in one of Soodyal’s tweets appear to be a Lamborghini Huracan Spyder, one older and one newer model Porsche Cayman, and an Audi RS3 Sportback.

Another tweet indicates that yet another car was seized from Gumede’s Umhlanga home, this time a Mercedes AMG GT S.

In another tweet, these and other cars can be seen. It is unclear how many have been seized at this point or their exact value.

Soodyal also posted a video in which Hawks officer Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi updated the media on the search and seizures operation, saying they still need to “asses what transpired in terms of the quantities and monies involved in terms of all the assets that we have now”.

Mulaudzi said there were 10 houses the Hawks and the AFU visited today for the joint operation, and those immovable properties, as well as luxury vehicles, were seized.

According to the officer the “operation went well” and those involved “managed to achieve our objective”, while adding there were some challenges encountered that would be dealt with by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) at a later stage.
