Question 1
Tom died intestate in 2022. Tom and his predeceased wife, Wendy, had four children, namely Ayanda, Bongani, Charlotte (adopted) and Dumi. Ayanda had 3 daughters, Eve, Fiona and Tara. Eve died in 2015. Ayanda constantly teased Charlotte about not being their sibling because she was adopted. On 15 April 2010, their argument got out of hand and Ayanda deliberately pushed Charlotte down the stairs, upon which Charlotte suffered a severe head injury and died. Charlotte was survived by her son, Siya. Ayanda was prosecuted and found guilty of murder. Ten years later, Tom died intestate, and his estate was worth R 800 000.
