Footballer ignored letters to pay
The taxman has booked Kaizer Chiefs striker Gastón Leandro Sirino into the black book of tax dodgers after he ignored a yellow card to pay over R6.1-million in unpaid personal tax.
News that Sirino has found himself offside of the taxman came to the fore when the South African Revenue Service (Sars) applied for a default judgment against him at the Johannesburg High Court.
In the application papers that we have seen, Sars said the former Mamelodi Sundowns goal poacher owed the no-nonsense institution over R5.9-million after dribbling it with payment of his personal income tax.
However, the staggering amount ballooned to R6.1-million after Sars imposed a total of R16000 in administrative penalties and more than R224000 in interest.
