Suspended Inyathi magistrate Samukelisiwe Gumbo has suffered another setback after her conviction of a Kwekwe couple was overturned by High Court Judge Ngoni Nduna.

Gumbo is no stranger to controversy. In July, she was publicly criticised by Judge Munamato Mutevedzi for mishandling a case involving two individuals accused of prospecting for gold without a licence.

The magistrate is currently under investigation by the Judicial Services Commission (JSC) for allegedly criticising the government's economic policies and condoning corruption.

According to the JSC, they received a leaked audio recording and are actively investigating the matter while Gumbo remains on suspension.
