The four — Nobert Muzhinji, Thabani Mashonganyika, Sikhumbuzo Madhuveko and Mangisi Mutandavari — were convicted of murder by High Court judge Justice Felistus Chatukuta.

The court heard that on August 25 2008, the ruling party activists teamed up and fatally stabbed MDC-T supporter John Max at Chidhuri Buffalo Farm in Kadoma.
