The court heard that both parties are Facebook socialites, and Jiri runs a Facebook page by the name Evidence Chihera Live, while Maphosa runs a Facebook page called Mai Tt Diaries.
Allegations are that on June 1, 2022, in Harare, Jiri posted a live video of herself on her Facebook page complaining that Mai Titi’s daughters were raped by an insane person whom she resides with.
The live video footage is said to have intentionally harassed, bullied, caused emotional distress, and humiliated Mai Titi.
When Mai Titi saw the video on the accused’s Facebook page, she then reported the matter to the police resulting in Jiri’s arrest.
The video will be produced in court as an exhibit.
Thomas Chanakira was prosecuted.
