BINDURA South legislator Remigious Matangira (Zanu PF) and
his driver Tichaona Svinurai (32) are in soup after they allegedly assaulted an
MDC activist.
The matter came to light at Bindura Magistrates’ Courts
where the duo appeared before the provincial magistrate Tinashe Ndokera on
Thursday last week.
They were remanded out of custody to February 11 for
continuation of trial.
The State alleges that on June 22 Matangira (66) and his
driver came across Saymore Mashokoro (45), an MDC activist, who was walking
with a friend Evamore Kakurira and insulted the activist.
Mashokoro advanced towards the two and Matangira grabbed
him by the collar while stepping on his foot, and his driver slapped the
activist once in the face before releasing him.
He sustained a swollen foot and face. Mashokoro filed a
police report resulting in the arrest of the suspects. Newsday
