Edition 1987 page 76 by S. S. Richardson and plethora of judicial authorities. He then submitted at paragraphs 3.15 – 3.29 of the 2nd Defendant’s address that the prosecution failed to placed before the Court whether direct or circumstantial to show that there was any such agreement or confederacy between the 1st and the 2nd Defendant in proving the offence of conspiracy. In the instant case, learned Counsel referred me to the testimonies of PWS 1 and 2 and submitted that they testified to the effect that they were not aware of any personal relationship that exist between the 1st and 2nd Defendants apart from their relationship as colleagues. Learned Counsel also referred me to the cross examination of PW1 on the 28th June, 2016 by the 2nd Defendant’s Counsel. He further submitted that PW2’s evidence under cross examination on the 28th June, 2016 by the 2nd Defendant’s Counsel stated that she has never witnessed any meeting between the 1st and 2nd Defendants. He further submitted that PWS 1, 2, 3 and 4 all agreed that the 2nd Defendant could not allocate land to anyone because it is the Land Adjudication and Allocation Committee that allocates land to successful Applicants and thereafter instructs the Secretary of the Committee to issue allocation letters. The learned Counsel also referred me to the testimony of PW4, the nominal complainant who testified that he does not know if any personal relationship exists between the 2nd and the 1st Defendants. According to learned Counsel, PW4 testified further that he did not mention the 2nd Defendant in his petition and that he does not have any complain against the 2nd Defendant. thus, the learned Counsel for the 2nd Defendant contended that by the testimonies of PWS 1, 2, 3 and 4 which were given under cross examination, there is no iota of credible evidence led by the prosecution whether direct or circumstantial, to show the existence of any agreement or confederacy between the 1st and 2nd Defendants in proving the offence of conspiracy especially as PW3 failed to name the cohorts that assisted the 1st Defendant to manipulate the record of the allocation letter of Plot SS1 Jikwoyi Extension. 25
