| Strange Twists In Walter Magaya’s Case |
Magaya’s lawyers have accused prosecutor-general Ray Goba of unprofessionalism as they claim Magaya has no case to answer because the alleged victim has since withdrawn the case saying she falsely implicated Magaya in the rape.
The State says it has 11 witnesses and will produce evidence that the victim Petronellah Mandaza was allegedly paid $100 000 to silence her.
Mandaza’s lawyer is also accusing Goba of interviewing a rape suspect Kudakwashe Elliot without reporting him to the police when he was aware that Elliot was on the wanted list.
Elliot who is reported to be a former boyfriend of Mandaza is one of the State witnesses in the Magaya trial.
Rape victims are normally protected by law but Mandaza went public when he confessed to falsely implicating Magaya.
