MDC-T MP locked up

MUTARE — Musikavanhu MP Prosper Mutseyami, detained last week over public violence charges, had his freedom cut short on Tuesday after the State quashed his $100 bail shortly after Chipinge magistrate Vusimuzi Gapara had assented to it.

Mutseyami, who is also MDC-T organising secretary for Manicaland province, was arrested last week Friday following an outbreak of intra-party violence at a meeting he had addressed. He was charged with public violence alongside six other party activists.
