The City of Cape Town is dragging the owners of the trendy ZAR nightclub in Green Point to court.
Officials say they have issued fines to co-owners Gayton McKenzie and Kenny Kunene for not having business, entertainment or health licenses.
However, McKenzie has rubbished the claims insisting they are being targeted unfairly.
The nightclub is currently operating under the Cape Royale Hotel's liquor license.
However, the City's Kylie Hatton says the owners have still not paid for two outstanding fines issued for other contraventions earlier in 2011.
“The manager of ZAR has been summoned to appear in court on 10 November for trading without the appropriate licences,” she says.
McKenzie has vowed they will fight the move until the bitter end.
“Even if we spend a R100 million in court, we are going to fight this until the end,” he says.
City officials say they will monitor the club for any further contraventions.

The owners of the trendy ZAR nightclub in Cape Town may have to appear in court soon.
Apparently, the club’s co-owners Kenny Kunene and businessman Gayton McKenzie have not paid fines issued in May and August for trading without a business license.
The City of Cape Town said it submitted its papers to court and would like the owners to be issued with a summons.
City spokesperson Kylie Hatton said the owners have not paid two outstanding fines.
“The club will still be monitored for contraventions until a court date has been set,” she said.
McKenzie said they are fighting the move.
“Those fines we disputed and we took the matter up in court. We are going to court in October. We are following the law,” he said.
