Zane Robertson arrested in Kenya - Sexual assault investigation leads to unlicensed AK47 arrest

Yes the rape was caused by a COVID test.
Unless you can post court reports or newspaper coverage, we don’t believe a word out of your lying mouth.

All the newspaper coverage says he was arrested for attempted rape and released on bail for attempted rape.

If this is not true, the newspapers will post a retraction statement.

Not looking too gangsta in this pic :)

Going by this, there are no rape charges. That in itself is a relief for Zane, because he'll avoid the stigma of that accusation behind bars, should he ever serve time (unlikely I think).

As to the gun possession without licence, that needs to be looked into as well.

The fact that he's out on bail, and could, in theory, escape Kenya, signals to me that the anticipated charges will not be too heavy.

Escaping the country, while unlawful, might be something to consider, lest the legal procedures take weeks/months/years, without rhyme or reason, as is often the case in developing nations.

If my assessment of the situation is erroneous, I stand corrected.

That's correct. I was "friends" with Ngugi on Messenger, and he was desperate for a coaching gig in the USA. On trying to get more info re his coaching experience, Ngugi refused to divulge any information about his runners. It was a strange going back and forth over several weeks, until I gave up because he was extremely secretive bordering on paranoid.

By the way he was not a convicted drug cheat, as you put it, but simply refused to comply with IAAF tester, John Whetton, a former British 1500 star.

It is sad that you label him a convicted drug cheat, when no evidence of that was ever uncovered. It would be like labelling Farah in a negative light for also refusing to answer his doorbell 😔

Also the poster claiming to have been at the trial posted no official link or explanation of how and why he was at Robertson’s trial. Why do you believe him with blind faith when all the media reports refute what the poster wrote?

Ngugi: He refused an invasive drug test from people he did not know, i.e. John Whetton, IAAF, but no evidence he ever doped.

His O.G. victory in the 1988 Seoul 5000 was epic, showing that endurance runners who build a huge gap as he did, can win championship races.

What do you mean he refused an “invasive” test? Why are you so biased? He refused to be drug tested, something he had so many times before. He got banned for 4 years for clearly hiding his drug use.

You are an apologist for the wrong people.

This should be linked to “know anyone who blew up their life” thread

What a disgusting comment. Did posting this make you feel better about yourself and your sad life?

I didn’t say that. I posted the article, and someone else said it.

But, yeah that’s the face of someone who has hit rock bottom after a streak of major f-ups, in a county where you should be more careful.

any updates on Zane?

he should get a gender reassignment surgery and argue to go to women’s prison, which will be much less violent
