adminHowever, three others Dorcas Shereni, Tatenda Chinaka, and Farai Bhani would be put to their defence after presiding magistrate Mr Donald Ndirowei ruled that they have a case to answer.
In his ruling Mr Ndirowei said no incriminating evidence was led against Zimrights, Machisa and Chamahwinya but the other three would have to explain why they were in possession of counterfeit copies of the certificate of registration without the Registrar General’s consent.
Prosecutor Mr Sidom Chinzete alleges that the three tried to discredit the voters’ roll by manufacturing counterfeit copies of the certificate of registration as a voter which they would complete with false names of alleged registered voters.
It is the State’s case that Bhani registered himself as a voter at Dema Registrar General’s Office and acquired a certificate of registration as a voter.
He is alleged to have taken the certificate to Chinaka together with reams of green flimsy papers.
The pair, it is alleged, scanned the received copy of the certificate of registration as a voter and printed counterfeit copies using the supplied flimsy papers. They allegedly filled fake names on them and Shereni would give the documents to her subordinate Chamahwinya upon his request at the ZimRights offices.
