Prosecution to update court on police investigation

Date:

BY JENNIFER KUSAPA

PUBLIC Prosecution is yet to update the court on whether or not the investigation into an alleged rape incident has been completed.

Yesterday the court was told that the prosecution in carriage of the case was busy on another trial and the prosecutor who appeared cannot assist court in regards to the outstanding issues relating to investigation.

Meanwhile defence said that partial disclosures were already served and they are waiting on the prosecution for full disclosures.

This is the case against an accused who is charged in relation to amendment (SEXUAL OFFENCE) ACT 136F (3)(a) Sexual Intercourse or Indecent Act – Child under 15.

On the previous occasion the prosecutor who appeared told the court that the only outstanding issue is the investigator’s statements, in which the court raised disappointment over the delay of the police investigators statement.

The case yesterday was adjourned to September 26 for prosecution to update the court on the status of the investigation.
