THE trial of former Midlands Provincial Affairs minister Jaison Kokerai Machaya on allegations of fraudulently acquiring 1 000 residential stands from Gokwe Town Council which he later sold, has been set for July 19 at the Harare Magistrates Court.
Machaya (65) was advised of the trial date and transfer of his case from Gweru when he appeared before magistrate Victoria Mashamba, yesterday.
The former top Zanu PF official has been appearing at the Gweru Magistrates’ Court since his arrest on charges of criminal abuse of office, four months ago.
