Madzore's bail application fails at the High Court
Movement
for Democratic Change (MDC)
October 12, 2011
The bail application for Solomon Madzore, the MDC Youth Assembly
chairperson failed to take place at the High Court this morning
after State prosecutor Edmore Nyazamba said he was "overwhelmed".
Justice Hlekani Mwayera postponed the hearing to Friday.
Madzore is facing
false
charges of murdering a police officer in Glen View in May. He
was arrested last
week and was remanded in custody at Chikurubi Maximum Prison.
Madzore's lawyer,
Gift Mtisi tried to have the hearing postponed to Thursday but Nyazamba
was adamant. In July, some of the MDC members facing the same charge
failed to have their case heard in court as Nyazamba again failed
to turn up in court saying he was sorting out a family issue.
Madzore is part of 28
MDC members who have been arrested on trumped up charges of murdering
the police officers. Eight of them including Madzore are in custody
while the rest were granted bail at the High Court.
Unknown revellers at
a nightclub in Glen View 3 murdered the police officer.
