Mr Masupye

Major Phiri claims he has known Mr Masupye since 1996 and describes their intermittent friendship and interactions from around 1996 to 2022.

“I have known Mr Masupye from when I completed my matric in 1996 ... I met him so that I knew where vehicles were taken when they were stolen ... He is a friend ... I came to realize that when Gubis 85 started working in 2022, but he did not say that I am working for Gubis ...”

Advocate Mosikili states there is no person called Papi in the payment records and it is a reference used to trace payments.

“there is no person called Papi. It is just a reference being used to trace the payments so that it is known who they come from. Or at the very least, if there is a person called Papi, then that Papi is always linked to Mr Masupye”
