Well-known musician Joe Gwaladi is scheduled to appear before the Phalombe Magistrate Court in a case where he is accused of assaulting his wife.

Phalombe Police Public Relations Officer Jimmy Kapanga has confirmed of the development in an interview with the press.

According to Kapanga, the court is scheduled to hear a bail application from the musician.

Kapanga also trashed claims that the musician is already out on bail.
