The highly anticipated trial of the fraudulent ex-ZIFA bosses is set to resume next week as the court dismissed their bid for a permanent stay of proceedings. The news comes as a massive blow to the accused who were hoping for a more favorable outcome. According to sources within the court, the case is now expected to get underway in the coming days with the prosecution set to present their evidence against the former ZIFA officials.

Prosecutors have been preparing for a lengthy trial and it's expected that several key witnesses will be called to testify against the accused. The former ZIFA bosses were initially charged with multiple counts of corruption and embezzlement and face possible lengthy prison sentences if convicted.

The development means that the accused will not enjoy the reprieve they were hoping for after losing their bid to delay the proceedings indefinitely. It also raises the stakes in a trial that is expected to reveal a lot about the alleged misdeeds that took place during their tenure at ZIFA. With the trial set to start again next week, many are eagerly waiting to see what evidence will be presented and how the case will unfold in the coming days.

While details of the court case remain scarce, it's widely acknowledged that the outcome will have significant implications for ZIFA as an organization. If convicted, the former officials could face serious consequences, including long-term bans from football and possible financial penalties. However, their supporters have maintained their innocence and are confident that they will be cleared of the charges in the end.

As the nation waits with bated breath for the trial to resume, many are looking to see what the next chapter holds in this long-standing saga. One thing for sure is that the spotlight will be firmly fixed on the events that took place during the accused's time at ZIFA. With next week marking the resumption of the trial, only time will tell if justice will be served in the end. Stay tuned for updates from the trial and to see how the case unfolds in the coming days.
