One of the charges relates to the kidnapping of Yzelle Greyling (51).
Ms Greyling’s kidnappers Andre Breedt (34), Alistair Grobbelaar (47) and Lindani Raymond Mnguni (28) pleaded guilty in May.
They were sentenced to an effective six years in jail.
For the two counts of kidnapping Ms Greyling’s staff, the trio were handed four years’ imprisonment, of which three were suspended for five years.
They were sentenced to a further five years for kidnapping Ms Greyling. The sentences will run concurrently.
Ms Greyling spent some 10 hours bound and gagged in the boot of a car after being abducted at gunpoint in Umzumbe.
She was later released unharmed.
