According to NewsDay, through his lawyer James Majatame, Muzamani pleaded not guilty, arguing that the child framed him after he reprimanded her. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- In her ruling, Zuyu said the evidence presented by the State had a lot of gaps. It was the State’s case that on July 22, 2023, Muzamani asked his brother’s 17-year-old daughter, whom he lived with at the time in Triangle, to accompany him to a neighbour’s house where his sister-in-law was doing extra lessons. Prosecutors alleged that on the way, Muzamani asked the minor if she was dating anyone. He allegedly unzipped his trousers as they were walking and showed the teenager his manhood. Muzamani then removed the minor’s clothes and told her to bend forward, before raping her. The court heard that the girl later told her cousin (Muzamani’s son), who told the accused person’s wife. Muzamani vehemently denied the allegations upon being asked by his wife. The complainant later told her mother and a police report was made, leading to Muzamani’s arrest. In his defence, Muzamani argued that the girl was being dishonest. He added that she had several boyfriends.
