MP Garwe in contempt of court

ZANU PF Murehwa North legislator, Daniel Garwe, faces contempt of court charges after he allegedly stripped the family farm in Mvuma of assets despite a High Court order barring him from doing so.

In a High Court application HC 6885/18 made last week by his estranged wife, Pedzisayi Miriam Lillieth Garwe, the Zanu PF MP is accused of defying a court order made on June 15 2018 that interdicted him from taking away or removing assets held under the family trust.

High Court judge Justice Chirawu-Mugomba ruled that Garwe was in contempt of the High Court order in case number HC 4882/18 dated June 15 2018.
