"He was once charged with treason for plotting to kill Mugabe and they hired Ari Ben-Menashe a Canadian-based political consultant to come and lie about him in court here. Now it is Mujuru a woman of great virtue who has never insulted anyone, a woman who has never responded with insult to those who insulted her, they claim she wanted to kill Mugabe just because she had become popular than him."
