Chronicle EditorIn our edition of November 15, 2018, we carried a story headlined: “Ex-AFM leader to pay widow $82 000.”
In our article we erroneously wrote that Dr Aspher Madziyire, who was cited as the first defendant in the matter, was ordered to pay the plaintiff, Ms Melody Mudzingwa, $82 000 for “fatally knocking down her husband”.
It has however since come to our attention that the court order by Bulawayo High Court judge Justice Maxwell Takuva of November 8, 2018, was in fact made against Tristar Insurance Company.
The claim by the plaintiff against Dr Madziyire is still being contested and has therefore not been concluded.
We apologise for the inconvenience and embarrassment that the article could have caused to Dr Madziyire.
