The driver of the haulage truck which was involved in an
accident with a commuter omnibus at Ngezi Bridge (Featherstone) along the
Harare-Beitbridge highway last week, killing 19 people, has appeared at the
Chivhu magistrates court facing 19 counts of culpable homicide.
Jeremiah Haisoswi (30) of Epworth appeared before
Magistrate Rufaro Panavanhu and was charged with having caused the death of 19
passengers in a commuter omnibus travelling from Murambinda to Harare when the
haulage truck he was driving encroached onto the lane of the vehicle, resulting
in the accident.
16 people died on the sport, while the other three died on
admission at Chivhu hospital.
He was remanded out of custody on free bail to the
16th of this month for trial.
