Man drags LSZ to court over dismissed complaint

A MARONDERA man has taken the Law Society of Zimbabwe (LSZ) to the High Court, challenging the dismissal of his complaint against a lawyer.

In a chamber application for condonation for late filing of an application for review and extension of time within which to file, Garikai Shutu argues that he was unfairly denied justice when the LSZ Disciplinary Tribunal threw out his complaint against legal practitioner Gerald Saidi.

Shutu argues that the tribunal’s decision was “procedurally unfair, biased and legally unsound” and is now seeking to have it reviewed and set aside.
