Fishrot accused Tamson Hatuikulipi and his wife, Ndapandula Hatuikulipi, have escaped a lawsuit after reaching a settlement agreement with L.I.T. Construction and Formwork CC.

The couple was being sued for over N$600,000.

Hatuikilipi and his wife, according to court papers, would supply building equipment for the construction of a property in Windhoek and subsequently generate and render the plaintifs' monthly Debtors Transaction Report for services rendered.

Court documents further state that the two complied with the terms of the agreement and provided the plaintiffs with a Debtors Transaction Report but failed to pay a balance of over N$600,000.

The parties are expected to file a settlement agreement at the High Court on July 5.

Hatuikilipi and his wife are represented by lawyer Florian Beukes, while the plaintiff is represented by Trevor Brockerhoff.
