BY RUTENDO MAWERE GWERU — High Court Judge Nicholas Mathonsi is expected to hand out a judgement in a case in which Midlands governor Jason Machaya’s son is accused of murdering a Gokwe man.
The case involving Farai Machaya, Abel Maposa, and brothers Edmore Gana and Bothwell Gana, as well as Obert Gavi and Tirivashoma Mawadze, all of Gokwe Centre, has caused the extension of the High Court circuit in Gweru that was supposed to have officially ended on Friday.
The six have pleaded not guilty to the charge of killing Moses Chokuda in March 2009. Chokuda’s family has refused to bury his remains until they obtain justice.
The trial opened on September 16 and the defence lawyers are expected to conclude their submissions on Monday.
