One granted bail, 7 remain in custody
Movement
for Democratic Change (MDC)
July 28, 2011
Cynthia Manjoro, one of the eight MDC activists who are facing trumped-charges
of murdering a police officer in Glen View, Harare in May was
granted bail at the High Court this afternoon. Justice Samuel Kudya
denied bail to the other seven saying they are still a flight risk
as there are no changed circumstances from their initial bail application
last month.
However, Justice
Kudya conceded that there are changed circumstances in Manjoro's
fresh bail application and she was granted a US$500 bail with stringent
reporting conditions.
Those who remain
in custody are; Councillor Tungamirai Madzokere of Ward 32 Glen
View, brothers Lazarus and Stanford Maengahama, Phineas Nhatarikwa,
Stanford Mangwiro, Yvonne Musarurwa and Rebecca Mafikeni.
They are part
of 24 other MDC activists who are facing the same false charges.
The police officer was murdered by unknown revellers at a night
club in Glen View. The other 16 members were granted bail in July.
