Appearing before magistrate Joshua Nembaware facing a robbery charge on Friday, Blessing Ncube pleaded not guilty and was granted ZWL$100 000 to March 20.

The State, led by Selestine Madziwa, alleged that on February 19, Ncube met the complainant around 4am along a path and he proposed love, but was turned down. He grabbed the complainant by the collar and slapped her several times before stripping her naked.

The complainant screamed for help and the accused managed to rob the complainant's mobile phone before fleeing.

The ZAR800 phone was later recovered.
