Mawarire case: State goes for broke
Xolisani Ncube ·
THE State yesterday added fresh charges in a bid to nail returned social activist and cleric, Evan Mawarire, who is now set to appear in court today.
Among the charges Mawarire will face are; subversion, plots to remove a constitutionally-elected government, abuse of the national flag and inciting public violence.
The cleric’s lawyer, Harrison Nkomo, a member of the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights, spent the better part of yesterday at the Harare Magistrates’ Court hopping Mawarire would be brought to court, but this did not materialise.
