The High Court in Blantyre has set April 15 as the day it is to deliver the ruling on whether or not business tycoon Thomson Mpinganjira has a case to answer.

Mpinganjira was dragged to court by the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) on suspicion that he tried to bribe five constitutional court judges to sway justice in favor of former president Peter Mutharika in the presidential election case.

The five judges have appeared before judge de Gabriele as witnesses to enforce the position of the ACB on the allegations.

Presiding over the case, Judge de Gabriele says she will deliver her ruling on case-to-answer in the morning of April 15 in the High Court in Blantyre.
