Katsimberis fraud trial to continue tomorrow

Prosper Dembedza Herald Correspondent

The five-day continuous fraud trial of George Katsimberis has been deferred to tomorrow for continuation.

The matter was put on a five-day continuous roll after the magistrate observed that it was going at a snail’s pace.

During the previous sitting, the magistrate reprimanded George Katsimberis after he described words that were said by Deputy Prosecutor General Mr Michael Reza as crazy.

Katsimberis is making an application for referral of his case to the Constitutional Court.

Katsimberis said he wanted a Greek interpreter because the language used in court is not the language that he uses every day.

He also said he wanted his trial to be televised because it was being falsely reported by the media.

Katsimberis went on to accuse Mr Reza of making several lies before the courts.

“He does improper things and gets back up from the media,” he said.

He further submitted that Mr Reza boosts his ego by saying improper things to give news to the media.

Katsembiris allegedly duped a local property developer of close to US$1 million in a joint venture to build cluster houses in Borrowdale Harare.
