Gwaze’s lawyer comments

The lawyer representing a man accused of the murder and sexual violation of his 10 year old niece says the family never waivered in its belief that George Gwaze was innocent.

A jury this afternoon cleared Mr Gwaze of the charges, which followed the death of Charlene Makaza, who died in January last year.

Lawyer Jonathon Eaton says the case was out of the ordinary.

Jonathon Eaton says the Gwaze family is looking forward to moving on with their lives.
