Heal Zim hails JSC on special courts

PEACE building rights’ group, Heal Zimbabwe Trust, has commended the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) for establishing special courts that deal with cases of politically-motivated violence before, during and after the July 30 elections.

Heal Zimbabwe Trust (HZT), however, quickly noted the need for multi-stakeholder participation such as the church, the Zimbabwe Human Rights Commission (ZHRC) among others to deal with the vice.

The JSC has designated 57 magistrates to try cases of politically motivated violence in the country’s 10 provinces.
