The Kisutu Resident Magistrate’s Court in Dar es Salaam has again postponed a murder case facing a prominent businessman in the city, Marijani Abdubakari Msofe, also known as Papaa Msofe, to January 22, this year.
The decision to postpone the case was
reached on Wednesday by the court after the prosecution led by Principal
State Attorney Tumaini Kweka informed the court that the investigations
had not been completed.
Msofe is accused of having killed a fellow
businessman, Onesphory Kituli last year in a feud over a house, which
the deceased had bought on mortgage after making a down payment of
30m/-.
When first charged, the accused was not
allowed to enter any plea because murder cases are normally handled by
the High Court, now he has entered a not guilty plea and remains in
custody since there is no bail on murder cases.
The case was adjourned until October 28, last year.
