Ex-ZBC boss trial hits snag
Prosper Dembedza Court Correspondent
The trial of Former ZBC acting chief executive Wisdom Hombarume on charges of fraud, criminal abuse of office and smuggling involving over US$6 700 has hit a brick wall following indications that the prosecutor handling the matter Mrs Cecilia Mashingaidze is not feeling well.
The State led by Mr Shephered Makonde successfully applied for a postponement of the matter to June 29 to allow Mrs Mangaidze time to recover.
Harare regional Magistrate Mrs Esthere Chivasa deferred the matter to June 29 for trial commencement.
Hombarume (48) is currently on $5 000 bail.
The complainant in the case is the Ministry of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services, represented by Secretary Mr Nick Mangwana.
