adminNdlovu’s trial opened at the Victoria Falls magistrates’ court on Wednesday and he broke down as he denied responsibility for the road accident that killed his elder brother Adam and a female passenger, Nomqhele Tshili. Ndlovu (39), of 7 St Lawrence Road in Parklands, Bulawayo, whose business address was given as MAP Brothers, corner Fort Street and 4th Avenue, is facing charges of culpable homicide for allegedly causing the death of his elder brother and Tshili in a horrific accident near Lupinyu Business Centre in Victoria Falls in December last year.
He is denying the charges, saying it was a result of a tyre burst.
Ndlovu’s lawyer Mr Harrison Nkomo said yesterday in his submissions that the State had failed to prove a prima facie case against his client because the tyres that were examined by the police forensic experts did not belong to his vehicle.
Ndlovu, who was wearing a black suit, white shirt and a black tie, looked pensive in the dock.
