R400 000 compensation for victim in Bellarmine Mugabe shooting case

The victim in the shooting case involving Bellarmine Mugabe, son of former Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe, and his cousin Tobias Matonhodze is set to receive R400 000 in compensation, according to evidence presented in court.
The investigating officer told proceedings that R250 000 has already been paid, with an outstanding R150 000 still due.
The payment forms part of the fallout from a case that has drawn attention because of the accused’s political lineage and the violent circumstances surrounding the incident.
Sentencing has been postponed to April 29, when the court is expected to determine the final consequences for the pair. -The Day Star
