Minister
spends third night in jail over cell phone circus
Youth Forum
July 30, 2009
Plotted MDC-T deputy
minister for youth, Honorable Tamsanqa Mahlangu will spend another
chilly night in remand prison after overzealous state prosecutor
Chris Mutangadura opposed bail this afternoon citing that the whole
respected MP for Nkulumane was likely to flee the country over Chinotimba's
old cell phone which the defense council C. Kwaramba valued for
only R50 if it were to be bought in South Africa.
The minister flatly denies
the charges and believes that this is a well orchestrated ploy by
ZANU-PF to punish him for his political convictions in the same
fashion that several other MDC-T MPs are being politically persecuted
under the instructions of ZANU-PF through political appointee Johannes
Tomana, the attorney general.
Meanwhile the decision
to grant the minister bail will be delivered tomorrow at 1115AM
at Rotten Magistrate Courts in court 20.
The Youth Forum is boycotting
the Zimbabwe Youth Council led youth constitutional Indaba penciled
for August 13 in Bulawayo. We firmly believe that there is no need
to continue cooperating with Zanu PF youth institutions like the
Zimbabwe Youth Council when our youth leaders continue to suffer
unnecessary political humiliation at the hands of an unrepentant
ZANU-PF regime.
