HARARE Regional magistrate, Feresi Chakanyuka, has deferred the sentencing of union leader and activist, Obert Masaraure to Friday.

In mitigation, Masaraure’s lawyer Tapiwa Muchineripi submitted that Masaraure is a first offender, and he should be given a chance to rehabilitate himself.

“This court should come up with a sentence which should not exceed a fine or minimum imprisonment of one year or community service,” he said.
