Former Leopards coach locked up for theft

Black Leopards have opened a case of theft against its former coach Ivan Minnaert.


This comes after Minnaert was in possession of a car that belonged to the club a day after he was sacked.

Leopards had asked the Rayon Sports coach to return the car, however he asked to return it at a later date.

It is reported that the club’s team manager Elijah Mulaudzi fetched the car from Minnaert’s resident where he ran the coach over when he drove off.
