2nd All Stakeholders' Conference proceeding as planned
Movement
for Democratic Change
October
21, 2012
Hon Douglas
Mwonzora was today at the High Court where an appeal by Danny Musukuma,
a Zanu PF activist to stop the hosting the 2nd All Stakeholders'
Conference was once again quashed.
High Court Judge,
Justice Zimba Dube dismissed the application saying it was meant
to harass Copac leadership and derail the process.
On Friday, an
application by Musukuma seeking to bar the conference from proceeding
was thrown away. Musukuma had earlier last week filed an urgent
court application seeking Copac to publish a National Statistical
Report on the draft
Constitution for people to study it before the start of the conference.
However, in
its response, Copac put it through to the presiding judge, Justice
Ben Hlatshwayo that the report was available on the Copac website
for anyone to have access to. When this emerged the two parties
agreed to register a mutual consent allowing Copac to avail the
national report on the website and to print hard copies of the report
for distribution to all the Copac provincial administrators.
The MDC remains
focused on the 2nd All Stakeholders' Conference and the need
to deliver
the new Constitution to the people of Zimbabwe.
