JUST IN: Job Sikhala’s conviction in May for obstructing justice quashed by High Court. He was given wholly suspended 6-month sentence and fined US$600. Justices Kwenda and Chikowero on appeal: “Accused is found not guilty and acquitted.” Sikhala stays in jail on other charges.

Joanah, Netsai and Cecillia were charged with criminal offences and arbitrarily arrested after leading an anti-government protest. After their arrest, the women experienced terrible trauma by unnamed attackers. Demand justice for them now. #W4R2022 act.amnestyusa.org/page/1156…

Unbelievably disappointing. A Bulawayo magistrate has dismissed @nytimes freelancer @moyojeffrey’s application for a discharge. His trial will continue on April 28. Moyo’s co-accused, Zimbabwe Media Commission registrar Thabang Manhika, was acquitted last week in a separate trial

Zambian kwacha is now almost equivalent to the Rand. The same Kwacha that was once mocked in Zimbabwe. Nothing works if the politics is not right
