The Tax Administration Department yesterday seized a Mercedes Benz motor vehicle owned by popular entertainer Elephant Man, for the alleged non-payment of taxes.
The department's Special Enforcement Team, with the assistance of the police, and as part of their ongoing operations to clamp down on delinquent taxpayers, carried out the raid at a Hillview Crescent, St Andrew premises where the entertainer has an apartment.
The Tax Department, however, declined to confirm how much money was owed by the artiste, but said assets are seized when individuals/companies are 'chronically delinquent' in tax payments.
"...What I can disclose is that the Special Enforcement Team carried out an operation and seized assets of a taxpayer for non-payment of taxes," said Merris Haughton, the director of communication at the Tax Department.
