Court Proceedings
The state called the investigating officer from the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission, who submitted that Chimombe and Mpofu were not good candidates for bail. It emerged that the two have valid Chinese visas, and if granted bail, they are likely to abscond trial.ZACC officer Henry Chapwanya explained,
“The accused are a flight risk, they are men of means who can at any given time…if they escape through borders they can sustain their livelihoods.”
Chapwanya also said Mpofu gave a suspicious address, where an unfinished house with no doors or windows was found, and only a gardener stayed in the garage.
“We went to the house and found an unfinished house. It has no doors and windows and doesn’t look like anyone stays there. We went around the house and it shows no one stays there,” he said.
