Former Zimbabwe international and Dynamos legend Gift “Umbro” Muzadzi was on Monday arraigned before the court facing allegations of growing marijuana plants in his garden without a licence.
Muzadzi appeared before Harare Magistrate Mrs Yeukai Dzuda, facing charges under the Dangerous Drugs Act.
The Zimbabwe international goalkeeper was not asked to plead during a brief appearance before Dzuda who released him on Z$50,000 bail.
Police acting on a tip-off, went to Muzadzi’s Good Hope house in May this year and identified seven cannabis plants in his garden. The plants ranged between 0.86 and 1.8 metres in height.
Muzadzi was initially arrested on September 3, and yesterday, he was remanded to November 29 2023.
Prosecutors say his wife Mendy Mhene when asked by the police told them that the plant belonged to her husband who was subsequently interviewed and allegedly admitted the same.
