LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-The Lilongwe Chief Resident Magistrate Court on Monday, September 11, 2023 rejected Prophet Shepherd Bushiri and wife Mary’s application that extradition case be dissmissed entirely in which South Africa is pursuing.

Magistrate Chimwaza however agreed with the Bushiris that the documents which the South African authorities want to use as evidence were not duly authenticated hence may not be admissible.

The court has since adjourned the matter to October 10, 2023 when the state will parade a witness from South Africa.
