The High Court in Zomba has found Misozi Chanthunya with a case to answer in the alleged murder of his girlfriend Linda Gasa in 2010.
The court has also allowed the State to amend the charge sheet and add two more counts of perjury and hindering the burial of a dead body to the cases Chanthunya is answering.
High Court Judge Zione Ntaba read the ruling on behalf of High Court Judge Ruth Chinangwa who is handling the case but was absent on the day.
Lead State lawyer, Steven Kayuni, said he was satisfied with how the case was progressing.
Defence lawyer, Michael Goba Chipeta, said he could not comment on the ruling as he was yet to get a full copy.
