Chivero boat crew, owner to face murder charges
Tendai Rupapa Court Reporter
THE owner and crew members of the boat that capsized, killing 11 children at Lake Chivero on Christmas Day last year may face murder charges.
The prosecution is likely to prefer a more serious charge after a survivor’s testimony suggested the suspects intended to kill them.
Latif Ameer (53) and crew members Fadil Ramon Weale (27), Enock Yolani Zulu (36) and Joseph Abrahams (37) are facing 11 counts of culpable homicide.
Prosecutor Mr Michael Reza said he will evaluate the evidence of the second witness who testified yesterday.
If it corroborates that of the first witness, the charge will be altered to murder.
“Your worship I am of the firm opinion that the evidence led by this witness (first witness), if it is corroborated by the second witness then I intend referring this matter to the High Court so that the accused persons face 11 counts of murder,” he said.
This comes after the first witness, a 16-year-old survivor, during re-examination, narrated events that led to the death of the 11 children.
