<vote />
Lamusi Nthula who was part of a gang that robbed businessman Mr Wicknell Chivayo’s house in Ballantyne Park, Harare, was yesterday jailed an effective 11 years for illegal possession of firearms and articles for criminal use.
In passing sentence, Harare magistrate Mr Musaiona Shortgame took into account that Nthula had been on the run for many years. Nthula absconded court in 2011 before judgment was passed on charges of contravening the Firearms Act and possession of articles for criminal use. He resurfaced last month following his arrest in connection with 13 counts of unlawful entry.
Mr Shortgame ruled that Nthula was a fugitive who was not fit for community service and did not set aside part of the jail term and effected 11 years. Nthula will be back in court tomorrow together with his alleged accomplice, Ignatius Magaya, to answer to 13 counts of unlawful entry.
