Ruling in the matter in which former Zifa chief executive Henrietta Rushwaya, accused of concealing transactions from a principal, was on Tuesday deferred for the sixth time to September 12. Magistrate Ms Estere Chivasa deferred the matter in her chambers. Rushwaya is represented by Mr Charles Chinyama, who failed to come to court but sent his colleague, who requested the postponement.
The charges emanate from soccer matches that the senior national soccer team played in different countries in Asia between 2007 and 2010.
Rushwaya is alleged to have arranged trips for the national soccer team to Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, Oman, Jordan, Bulgaria, China, Thailand and Yemen without permission from her superiors.
She also argued that her arrest by the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission without the assistance of the police was in direct contravention of the powers bestowed upon the commission in Section 108 of the country’s constitution.
