In March, Xaluva prepared himself for a legal battle with the production house to recover R350,000 in unpaid salaries for March and April of 2024 for his lead role in the Mzansi Magic drama series, Code 13.
“Under the terms of his contract, Xaluva was entitled to payment based on the number of shooting days he completed, extending throughout the series unless both parties agreed otherwise.
“Despite this clear agreement, the production company did not settle its dues, prompting Xaluva to initiate arbitration through the Arbitration Association of Southern Africa.”
The arbitrator ruled in the former Gomora star’s favour and awarded him the outstanding R350,000 after finding Seriti Productions in breach of contract.
