They were advised to seek bail at the High Court.

Prosecutor Ngonidzashe Shumba told the court the violence erupted in the early hours of 10 June at Top Mine, where the three were panning for gold. “An altercation broke out when the accused persons accused Sibanda of stealing some of their gold ore and hiding it.

The two ganged up against him and started punching and kicking him,” said Shumba.

Sibanda bolted from a shack, screaming for help, but the duo allegedly chased him into the bushes, pelting him with stones.

They eventually cornered him and crushed him with bricks, leaving him dead on the spot.

Other panners who rushed after hearing his screams only found his lifeless body.

After weeks on the run, police tracked down Dube and Moyo, finally arresting them on 25 July. 🔗
