By Own Correspondent- Former Cabinet minister Supa Mandiwanzira has applied for the temporary release of his passport to allow him to travel to China.

However, the state has strongly opposed his application maintaining he is a flight risk.

Mandiwanzira has offered another property worth $100 000 as surety and Deputy Chief Magistrate Elisha Makomo will hand down his ruling on Friday.

Meanwhile, suspended Chief Magistrate Mishrod Guvamombe’s bail reporting conditions have been reviewed amid revelations that he will report once weekly to the police and the restriction to a 50 kilometre radius has been uplifted.-
