Themba Mliswa acquitted

Former Warriors fitness trainer and businessman, Temba Mliswa, was Wednesday acquitted on charges of trying to wrestle a million-dollar vehicle accessories company, Noshio Investments, from Paul Westwood.

Mliswa’s five co-accused also walked out scot free.

“No reasonable court acting carefully could convict the accused persons and putting them on their defence would be bolstering the State case,” regional magistrate Never Katiyo said before acquitting Mliswa, Hammarskjold Banda, Brendaly Banda, Alfred Mwatiwamba, Martin Mutasa and George Marere.
