LAWYERS representing the two men accused of raping social media star Mai Jeremaya said there were descrepancies between her evidence-in-chief and the three statements which she gave to the police.
Mf ai Jeremaya, whose real name is Ashley Masendeke, is accusing Thabo Blessing Dube and Martin Charlie o ra...ping her at a lodge in Harare on April 30 this year.
The rape trial resumed yesterday with Mai Jeremaya being cross examined on her evidence-in-chief given last FridayCharlie’s lawyers – Shepherd Makonde and George Manokore – asked Mai Jeremaya why there were discrepancies between her evidence-in-chief, which she gave in court, and her three statements given to the police.
The defence insinuated that a man called Sam, who is a key figure in this case after Mai Jeremaya claimed he was the person who first contacted her first prior to the rape, was a product of her fictitious creation.
“I take it it’s you who just saved his number as Sam because, according to the evidence before this court, you never met with this Sam,” said Makonde.
