A GAUTENG couple has been ordered to pay their landlord over R440 000 after they continued to live at a Malan-shof property in Randburg without paying rent.

The ruling was recently made by the South Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg after the landlord sought relief against the occupants, Albertina Tshisikule and Tshipuliso Barnabas Tshisikule.

The duo started living at the property in July 2009 and the lease agreement was renewed in writing on several occasions, the final renewal ended in July 2016.

After the lease expired, the couple remained in occupation with the landlord’s tacit consent, continuing to make rental payments.
