CONCOURT DISMISSES MOYO ARREST CHALLENGE

The Constitutional Court has dismissed an arrest challenge by Higher and Tertiary Education, Science and Technology Development Minister Professor Jonathan Moyo, a development that will see the politician being prosecuted for allegedly swindling the Zimbabwe Manpower Development Fund of $500 000.

Chief Justice Luke Malaba ruled that the lawfulness of arrest can properly be challenged before a magistrate. The court also found nothing wrong in the minister being arrested by a police sergeant who was on secondment at the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission. herald
