Owners of the Enyobeni tavern Siyakhangela and Vuyokazi Ndevu in the Eastern Cape have been found guilty of selling liquor to minors.
The couple appeared before the East London Magistrates Court on Wednesday, where they will return for sentencing on Friday.
The court found that the couple was responsible for the sale of alcohol to underaged children.
In June 2022, 21 children died at the Enyobeni Tarvern during a pens down celebration with a formal inquest into their deaths still expected to take place.
“Now what’s left is to argue for an appropriately punitive sentence when the matter resumes on Friday. This sentence will show other tavern owners… that they should go about their business with the necessary responsibility and care and within the confines of the law,” said National Prosecutions Authority spokesperson Luxolo Tyali.
