Mutare demonstrators out on $500 000 bail
Zimbabwe
Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU)
November 11, 2005
37 Workers who
were still in custody in Mutare (four were released yesterday after
paying a fine of $25 000) have been released on a $500 000 bail
each. The ZCTU Regional Chairperson for Mutare was, however, released
on $1.5 million bail. They are all expected to appear in court on
24 November 2005. They were all charged under the Public Order and
Security Act (POSA). The 118 workers (including the ZCTU leaders,
Wellington Chibebe and Lovemore Matombo) arrested in Harare are
still in custody. Our lawyers are making urgent application to the
High Court to have them released.
In Gweru and
Bulawayo, all those arrested were released yesterday.
