Mliswa’s daughter acquited M’diwa Mliswa Chanetsa, the daughter of former Norton legislator Temba Mliswa, has been acquitted of dr_g possession charges by Harare magistrate Ruth Moyo after a full trial. M’diwa was arrested alongside Tawanda Chigudu, but the magistrate ruled that they effectively denied the allegations, highlighting that the police’s claims were based on dr_gs found in a house occupied by Chigudu’s brothers, and that she was merely visiting. The court’s ruling was influenced by the lack of evidence, as nothing was found in M’diwa’s handbag or in Chigudu’s room during the search conducted by CID Dr_gs detectives. State witnesses were unable to prove that M’diwa was involved in the possession of the dr_gs, as other individuals lived in the house where the meth was discovered. The incident occurred on February 22, when detectives acted on tip-offs about the alleged possession. Despite a preliminary test that returned positive for the seized substance, the legitimacy of the charge against Mliswa was undermined by the circumstances surrounding her presence in the residence. Ultimately, the magistrate concluded that the prosecution did not establish a clear link between M’diwa and the drugs.
