Chegutu West legislator, Dexter Nduna (47), who was arrested last week Tuesday on charges of unlawful discharge of a firearm in a public place and violence, was granted $200 bail when he appeared before Chegutu magistrate, Felix Chauromwe on Saturday. Nduna is expected in court on July 16 for trial.
As part of the bail conditions, Nduna was ordered to reside at his given address until the case is concluded and not to interfere with State witnesses. Nduna’s alleged accomplices in the public violence charge; Takemore Maphosa (18) and Munyaradzi Simango (30), were ordered to pay bail $50 each, with the same conditions. The other four were freed after the court found out that they were over detained.
The State alleges, Nduna and five others went to Chinengundu polling station during Zanu PF primary elections. On arrival, Maphosa who is being charged together with Nduna, announced that voting had ended. The people who were queuing to vote then pushed open the gate and a fight broke out. Nduna allegedly went to his vehicle and took a pistol and fired four shots into the air.
