Background
Albert Mavhiya, a nurse at Karoi District Hospital, was convicted of criminal abuse of duty for charging and receiving US$10 from Monica Chumbu as payment for treating her using his own medication. The trial court found the state witnesses credible and rejected the appellant’s denial. The appeal challenged only the finding of receipt of money.
