Minister
Mahlangu remanded in custody after State opposes bail
Movement
for Democratic Change (MDC)
July 31,
2009
The MDC Youth
Assembly chairperson and deputy Youth Minister, Hon. Thamsanqa Mahlangu
has been remanded in custody to 13 August after the State invoked
the draconian Section 121 sub section 3 of the Criminal
Procedure and Evidence Act.
Hon. Mahlangu is facing
charges of stealing a cell phone from self styled war veterans'
leader, Joseph Chinotimba.
Hon. Mahlangu and his
aide, Malven Chadamoyo who is facing the charges were granted a
US$50 bail each by Magistrate Kudakwashwe Njerambini.
However, the State through
State prosecutor, Chris Mutangadura, invoked Section 121 sub section
3 of the Criminal Procedure and Evidence Act, which when invoked
suspends a bail order from the courts.
