Kamambo’s trial in false start

ZIMBABWE Football Association (Zifa) boss Felton Kamambo’s trial, where he is accused of vote buying, failed to take off after it was postponed to September 14 at the request of his legal team.

Kamambo (pictured) is accused of bribing Zifa councillors to vote for him in an election where he was pitted against former association president Philip Chiyangwa.

The trial, which was expected to start yesterday, was postponed after the State failed to provide Kambo’s legal team with enough documents in order for him to prepare his defence.
