Today brings us back to an important court case. Two business friends, Moses Mpofu and Mike Chimombe, must go to the High Court. They tried to stop their trial by saying some rules were broken, but the court said they needed to continue.
People across the country want to know what happens next because these men might have taken money from a special project. This project gave goats to people living in rural areas to help them make better lives for their families.
Last month, the men asked if they could stay out of jail until their trial finished. Justice Pisirayi Kwenda said no. He thinks they might run away because things look very bad for them.
The court feels worried about what might happen. If Moses and Mike are found guilty of taking the money, they could spend twenty years in prison. The court also learned something that made them extra careful. They found out that people who will tell the truth about what happened might be in danger. The court wants to make sure these people stay safe.
