nzeyimana so zeno vs republic 2013 tzca 380 19 april 2013
The High Court erred in law by relying on the State Attorney's statements without a counter-affidavit and by placing the burden on the appellant to secure an affidavit from prison officials; the delay was attributable to prison authorities, not the appellant, who had complied with the statutory requirement to give notice of intention to appeal.
