Supreme Court Limits Mpofu And Chimombe AppealJustice Chiweshe ruled that Mpofu may appeal on three questions of law, while Chimombe may proceed on one legal ground. However, they cannot ask the Supreme Court to reconsider the evidence or factual findings made by the High Court. Supreme Court Rejects Bid To Appeal Prison SentencesThe court also dismissed both applications seeking permission to appeal their prison terms. What The Supreme Court Ruling MeansThe Supreme Court has not overturned Mpofu and Chimombe’s convictions or reduced their prison sentences. Until the Supreme Court makes that decision, Mpofu’s 15-year prison sentence and Chimombe’s 12-year sentence remain in force.
