Movement for Democratic Change Alliance vice national
chairperson Job Sikhala has been acquitted of subversion charges by Masvingo
High Court Judge Justice Garainesu Mawadze today.
Meanwhile, proceedings at the Masvingo High Court where MDC
Alliance’s trial for subversion is taking place today temporarily stopped this
morning after tear smoke filtered into the courtroom.
Justice Mawadze, lawyers,journalists and other people in
the courtroom had to leave the court room as tear smoke wafted into the packed
room. The tear smoke is believed to have been thrown by MDC Alliance thugs who
had massed outside the court room chanting party slogans while Justice Mawadze
was delivering his ruling on the application to exception by Sikhala.
Areas around the High Court precincts were in complete lock
down as police and belligent MDC Alliance supporters were involved in a cat and
mouse game. Herald
