The corruption trial of Harare businessmen Moses Mpofu and Mike Chimombe involving a sum of US$7,7 million allegedly embezzled from the Presidential Goat Pass-On Scheme will be streamed live on Thursday.
Justice Pisirayi Kwenda announced the latest development following a request by a media house for live streaming of the criminal proceedings.
The matter was adjourned to 2:30 pm.
The two who were formerly charged with fraud on Wednesday are contesting the composition of the court by questioning the legality of assessors aged over 70.
They want the Constitutional Court to rule on the legality of having assessors aged over 70 years sitting with the judge in trial along with other constitutional issues which they want decided before the trial.
