Zimbabwean Who ‘Raped Donkey’ Is Denied Bail in Botswana

A Zimbabwean man who was thrown in jail in September last year for allegedly engaging in sex with a donkey had his prison remand extended by a Palapye magistrates court.

Decent Vee Mulilo (23)  was allegedly caught enjoying sex with the donkey at Phuduhudu lands, and while the state believes that forensic evidence will prove that he was more than taking the animal for a ride, the man has maintained his innocence.

The Voice reported that Palapye Magistrates court denied him bail as prosecutors pleaded for more time to secure forensic evidence.

He complained to Magistrate Thapelo Buang that his case was being delayed and that other suspects whose cases are also awaiting forensic results have come after him and left prison while he rots in jail.

“The prosecutor brings me here and presents the same story all the time regarding my remand. The case should be withdrawn because I do not have a case to answer,” he said.

The prosecution however opposed his bail application as they said as a foreigner he was a flight risk and might skip back to his country.

State Prosecutor, Ditsapelo Emmanuel, told the court that he did not know why the forensic laboratory was delaying with the results and asked the court to have forensic experts summoned to explain the delay. By Stephen Jakes. source -Bulawayo24
