Filmmaker David Kazadi and beautician Mwaka Halwiindi appeared in court together on Thursday over allegations relating to the production, circulation, and possession of expl!c!t videos.

The pair, who were reunited in a courtroom rather than on a film set, have both denied the allegations brought against them. The case has attracted significant public attention, with many following developments closely as legal proceedings continue.

Photos from the court appearance, taken by Catherine Pule and published by Kalemba on June 25, 2026, showed the accused arriving for the hearing as they prepared to challenge the charges against them.

The matter remains before the court, and both individuals are presumed innocent unless proven guilty through the judicial process. The case is expected to continue as prosecutors and defense lawyers present their arguments.
