High Court dismisses farmer's P92,000 claim

LOBATSE: The High Court has dismissed, with costs, an application made by Herbst Feeds claiming damages amounting to P91,977.50 from Tebogo Radithotse.

Louis Herbst, the owner of the company, took Radithotse to court complaining that between January and October 2005, Radithotse's cattle feasted on his crops - cattle grass and lucerne - at his Tsinani Farm without his consent.

 Herbst told the court that on several occasions he sent his workers to inform Radithotse that his cattle were in the habit of entering his farm and destroying crops, but to no avail. He further told the court that one Sunday in October 2005, he saw Radithotse driving cattle out of his farm.
