Chief Makoni, Cogen Simbayi Gwasira (51) and his two aides, Batholomew Mataga (61) and Robert Samuel (42) are expected to appear before Nyanga magistrate, Mrs Gloria Takundwa, to answer contempt of court charges. The trio failed to return 6 head of cattle belonging to Tobias Nyambodza and his mother, Elizabeth Nyambodza.
Chief Makoni had attached the cattle after the Nyambodzas had failed to appear at his community court. Nyambodza and his mother appealed against the attachment of their cattle at Rusape Magistrates’ Court which ruled in their favour and ordered Chief Makoni to return the cattle within seven days. Chief Makoni and his two aides were issued with a warrant of arrest after he defied the court order.
