“During 2016, a grouping made up of [Lifman, Booysen, Naude] and Colin Booysen who referred to themselves as the ‘brotherhood’ had established themselves as the dominant grouping in control of the nightclub and entertainment venue security or ‘bouncer’ industry in Cape Town.
“[Naude] was tasked to negotiate the split of Colin Booysen from the grouping which was finalised in November 2016,” the indictment reads. “They discussed the desire of [Lifman] to take back the clubs by force and intimidation and they all agreed to participate,” the indictment reads. “William Stevens once again agreed to assist them, but wanted the assurance that he would receive work from them going forward,” the indictment reads.
“At each of the clubs they ensured that they filled up the road with their vehicles and intimidated the clients and disrupted their business,” the indictment reads. “They proceeded to discuss how they would go to a Café Caprice in Camps Bay to shoot a target which they referred to as the 'Pakistani' [Chaudry].”
