By Own Correspondent| Two Chinese nationals Luo Tin Gpen and Li Yize have been sentenced to 42 months in prison for shooting Zanu Pf MP Keith Guzah’s son.

A Harare Magistrate Hosea Mujaya sentenced the pair together with accomplice, Gamuchirai Nigel Zuze  for the crime which was described by one of the victims, Kudzanai Nduku as very traumatising.

Kevin Guzah and his girlfriend Kudzanai Nduku were shot in a case of mistaken identity after they accussed thought they were responsible for an earlier robbery.

Zuze was sentenced to 30 months in prison. Nine months were suspended for each of the convicts meaning that Gpen and Yize will serve 33 months each and while Zuze will serve 21 months in jail.

In passing sentence, Mujaya said:

“The company which employed the three accused persons did not co-operate with the investigations officer, as they refused to give details on who was carrying which gun.

I cannot say it was deliberate, but a company which operates with these dangerous weapons should obviously know who is carrying which gun and at what time.”

In April, Nduku told the court that she is now wheelchair bound due to injuries sustained during the shooting incident.

Said Nduku:

“It was a traumatic experience for me and I’m still traumatised. A neurosurgeon said one of the major veins was damaged and that I may never walk again.

His explanation to my understanding meant that I have a permanent injury and chances that I walk again are limited.”-Newsday
