Bellarmine Chatunga Mugabe, 29 — a son of Zimbabwe's late longtime ruler Robert Mugabe — has admitted in a Johannesburg court to illegal residence and pointing a firearm, while denying that he shot and seriously injured his gardener during a February altercation in the city's upscale Hyde Park suburb. His cousin and co-accused, Tobias Mugabe Matonhodze, entered a guilty plea to the more serious charge of attempted murder, as well as immigration and firearm violations. The case, which has been postponed to 24 April pending further investigation, draws scrutiny to one of southern Africa's most prominent political families, as the firearm used in the shooting remains unrecovered.
