By Own Correspondent- Two Bulawayo teenagers have appeared in court for allegedly robbing a school pupil in Makokoba suburb at knifepoint.

Denson Zengeya (18) and Lorenzo Moyo (19), appeared before Lesigo Ngwenya and were remanded in custody to April 15.

They were already serving nine months jail sentence for robbing another pupil.

Prosecutor Mehluli Ndlovu told the court how the duo had robbed the pupil.

Ndlovu said:

 On March 5 at around 15.50PM, complainant was coming from school walking towards a park in Makokoba when the pair approached him from behind. Moyo handled him by the collar blocking him from escaping and Zengeya ordered him to surrender his phone.

 The two assaulted the complainant with fists. Zengeya drew an okapi knife and placed it on his ribs which led him to surrender the Sony phone.

The victim is said to have reported the accused to the police leading to their arrest.

The accused were identified as the robbers who had robbed another teenager a week earlier.
