Ivy Kombo and Husband Maintain Innocence Amid Fraud Allegations, Question Competency of Authorities

Ivy Kombo, a well-known singer, is currently facing fraud allegations in a trial for obtaining a conversion certificate fraudulently. However, she vehemently denies these accusations and instead accuses the authorities of incompetency in issuing her the said document.

Kombo, along with her husband Admire Kasi, is being accused of acquiring conversion certificates without fulfilling the mandatory examinations or obtaining exemptions. Their legal representation has staunchly refuted these claims, arguing that Kombo followed all required procedures and believed she obtained a legitimate document.

Kombo argues that it was not her responsibility to verify the authenticity of the document in question, as she received the certificate from the Council for Legal Education, signed by Judge Justice Sylvia Chirau. She maintains that she had no reason to suspect any fraudulent activity, as her certificate came from a reputable institution.

The prosecutors allege that Kombo and her husband sought the assistance of an official from the Council for Legal Education to bypass the conversion examinations, and a sum of US$1,100 was paid for this service. It is claimed that certificates were processed falsely stating that the couple had passed eight conversion subjects without undergoing the required examinations.

During the trial, the state witness, Shorai Tafadzwa Mupunga, absolved Kombo of any wrongdoing, explaining that the irregularities could not be attributed to her. However, Kombo’s defence team raised concerns about Mupunga’s credibility, pointing out conflicting statements and describing her as a “self-confessed liar” currently under suspension at the Ministry of Justice.

The trial is set to continue this Wednesday, where further evidence and arguments will be presented. The case raises questions about the integrity of the certification process and highlights the complexities surrounding allegations of fraud in the legal system. It remains to be seen how the trial will unfold and what implications it will have on the individuals involved as well as the wider legal education system.
