The Zibabwe Telegraph: August 2, 2010: SINGAPORE police are said to have "immediately" applied for an injunction barring newspapers from publishing the story which Zimbabwean President's daughter Bona Mugabe filed sexual assault charges against two Tanzanian students studying in Singapore.
According to information from Singapore, Tracy Guvamombe, who is actually Bona Mugabe using an assumed name, alleges that she was the victim of drink spiking and rape at a student party held in the upmarket Faber Park neighbourhood. The accused argue they had consensual sex.
Only during investigations did Bona's true identity come to light. Singapore police re said to then immediately applied for an injunction barring a Singapore Newspaper from publishing the story but this was not before the journalist leaked the story.
One of the accused has been identified as Patrick Azziz, the 27 year old son of Tanzanian business tycoon Rostam Aziz. Patrick, together with an unidentified co-accused, allegedly invited Bona Mugabe (known to them as Tracy Guvamombe) to the lavish party and plied her with spiked wines. They went on to have sex with her in one of the bedrooms.
The pairs luck ran out when Bona suddenly woke up only to find one of the suspects grovelling on top of her. She is said to have screamed alerting other guests who rushed in to her aide. The suspects fled but were later apprehended by the local police.
Bona Mugabe unwittingly reported the matter under her assumed name but her attempt to avoid being recognised is exactly what led to the story breaking. Rupali Karekar, who writes for Straits Times, received a tip off from a fellow student who has since identified ‘Tracy' as being the daughter of Zimbabwean president, Robert Mugabe.
Rupali Karekar approached the police seeking details about the case. The police not knowing that Tracy Guvamombe was an assumed identify released the details of the case.
