TEARS CEO appeals Auditor-General's findings on R2m irregular expenditure
July 10, 2025
|Cape Argus
CEO of gender-based violence nonprofit organisation TEARS, Mara Glennie, is appealing the findings of an Auditor-General report and a Gauteng High Court judgment, which found that she made an irregular expenditure of R2 million.
The application seeks leave to appeal to the full bench of the High Court in Gauteng, alternatively, to the Supreme Court of Appeal, against the entire judgment and order, including costs, granted by Judge Denise Fisher on June 11.
The Cape Argus last month reported that according to court papers and the judgment by Fisher, Glennie's financial profile came under scrutiny after the auditor's report raised questions about a payment by the foundation to another company, namely Fireworx Management Solution, which is also owned by Glennie.
TEARS's argument was that the payment was a loan for a "Joy Cottage project" (a safe-house for abused women).
