Gasela spent 22 years in prison, serving time at Chikurubi in Harare and later Khami Maximum Prison in Bulawayo. During his incarceration, his wife passed away, and he was unable to attend her funeral. Gasela was finally released in 2007 after being pardoned by President Mugabe.

In a surprising twist, Gasela discovered that all the individuals involved in his case, including the judge, prosecutor, State witness, and his lawyer, had passed away.
