FAMILY OF MAN GIVEN 2 LIFE SENTENCES TO APPEAL

MANZINI – The family of the man who was recently given two life sentences by the South Africa courts for trafficking three minors and raping will appeal the  sentences.

Makhosini Fakudze was given this punishment after the South Africa courts found him guilty of being an illegal immigrant in that country.
He was further found guilty of trafficking three minors whom are said to have been his stepdaughters.

The eldest of the trio, who was 13 years old when she was trafficked to South Africa is said to have been impregnated by Fakudze. The convict’s brother, Sive Fakudze said the family would be approaching the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) today to discuss issues pertaining to the said issue of the appeal.

Sive mentioned that their appeal was based on the recent developments regarding the case of Mduduzi Bhembe, the Swaziland Principal Association (SWAPA) President who was arrested together with lawyer Sanele Mabila on allegations of smuggling Makhosini to SA.
However, the matter of the duo is pending in court and they have not been found guilty of any crime.

“Our brother lived a miserable life in South Africa and we last saw him sometime last year before his arrest. He looked malnourished and did not even have shoes. We had to give him a pair of shoes. He informed us he had come to the country to collect money from some people and left again for SA,” said Fakudze.
He also revealed that the family was shocked when his brother’s ex wife, Nomsa* disclosed that the children did not belong to Makhosini.
He said they were shocked over the said allegations as the minors stayed with the Fakudze family from when they were born until their father took them to South Africa illegally.
