South African actress, TV presenter and fashion designer Enhle Mlotshwa Mbali is reportedly facing a lawsuit brought by a photographer for posting her own pictures.

The freelance photographer Cyan Haribhai alleges she took photos of Enhle at South African Fashion Week but Enhle reposted them without her permission. 

According to Sunday World Photographer Cyan Haribhai filed the lawsuit in the Johannesburg High Court after accusing the actress of allegedly taking the photographer’s fashion pictures published on a fashion website, Photo Vogue, and reposting them on her Instagram account without her permission, the publication reported. 

In court documents seen by Sunday World Cyan says she took the photographs at South African Fashion Week and posted them on her Instagram account @cyanstrange. 

She alleges that the South African fashion designer of clothing label Essie Apparel took screenshots of the photographs and posted them on her own Instagram page without her permission. 

Cyan sent a lawyer’s letter to the actress which she allegedly ignored. The photographer says Enhle’s actions are copyright infringement. 

Enhle told the publication she has been harassed by Cyan by the “frivolous lawsuit” and that the photos were taken over three years ago. 

Recently the mother of two told City Press that she’s living in fear after someone threatened to leak compromising pictures of her, which were stolen from her phone. “She also fired a security guard who was allegedly spying on her.”  

The publication adds that the actress filed a report with the police after a caller using an unknown number threatened to leak her nudes.  

“I have been feeling unsafe, I have been feeling unprotected, I have been feeling vulnerable in many ways …”

“I said I don’t feel safe with this guy here, so I asked the security company to remove him from my house.”  

“I went through our security phone. This is our phone in the property that gets used by security [guards]. So, when I got the phone, I realised that there were pictures of my guests, packages for delivery, my mother’s number plates, my number plates, and conversations between the guard and another man,” she told the publication.

“I have opened a criminal case with the police. A crime has not been committed yet, apart from my phone being tapped and we don’t know who tapped it.”
