Funny how there is so much silence over this incidence......whose afraid of the big bad wolf, or has a certain individual forgotten to file an incident report.
Dont worry, the passangers did.

What- at FL 130 on a Highveldt summer morning @08.00 hours?
Possible yes and the possible no.
Wonder what else could lock the controls - bit like a red flag perhaps?

The description sounds similar to an incident on a 1900 about a year ago. The pitot heat weren't working and froze and the crew lost all air-data and orientation in IMC. Thankfully broke cloud at about 10 000' and landed safely.

Only difference is the 1900 has pitot/static ports and the King Air has the static ports at the back. The King Air 200 also doesnt have a pitot heat warning.

The owner of this KingAir can't afford aviation. This is one of the worst and highest time KingAirs in the world. He hasn't paid his bills in 8 months and nobody will touch this aircraft. Someone will die if this plane is not grounded soon.
