MDC members granted permission to apply for bail at Supreme Court
Movement
for Democratic Change (MDC)
July
04, 2012
High
Court judge, Justice Chinembiri Bhunu today granted the 29 MDC members
facing false
charges of murdering a police officer, the right to appeal for
bail at the Supreme Court.
The granting
of the appeal comes after Justice Bhunu denied them bail last month
claiming that they were not suitable candidates.
The lawyers
representing the 29 members are now working on the new bail application
to be filed at the Supreme Court.
The members
have been in remand prison since their indictment for trial in March.
Meanwhile, the
trial of the 29 accused is expected to resume next week after Justice
Bhunu makes his ruling on Friday in a separate trial that is before
him.
