Estery Hapazari registered her complaint with the MCC over an article carried by The Mirror on 24-30 June 2016 headlined “Prominent Shurugwi businessman ordered to pay 4 beasts for adultery”.
The complainant states that the newspaper erroneously reported that Daniel Hapazari, who is cited for adultery in the story, is the owner of a “well-known supermarket called Vital supermarket”.
The complainant states that the correct position is that Daniel is an employee, and not owner, of the supermarket. She provides clarification that instead the proprietor is Itai Hapazari – adding that Itai and Daniel are brothers.
Hapazari is demanding a correction from The Mirror.
Status: Pending
The MCC has written to The Mirror and the newspaper is yet to respond to the complaint.
