The State, represented by Douglas Mapholisa, said that on an unknown date but sometime last month, Muzongoni allegedly pretended to be mad after it dawned on him that he had been spotted robbing a Grade Four pupil at St Anthony Primary School.

Muzongoni allegedly hid the money in his underwear after which he acted as if he was mad before stripping naked.

The man’s victim had cried, thereby attracting the attention of other people who approached him to inquire what had gone wrong.

After the boy narrated the ordeal, Muzongoni was arrested by police from Zaka.
