The MDC Alliance Assembly of Women is greatly shocked by the decision by Magistrate Bianca Makwande to deny Cecilia, Joana and Netsai bail.

The trio are just innocent young female political leaders who are not even a danger to the society because the don’t have arms. So to deny them bail is injustice and cruelity to as they have already suffered a lot when they were abducted, torture, sexually assaulted, victimised, intimidated, denigrated by the state security.

As their mothers in the struggle, we are going to stand with our daughters come rain, come thunder. We will fight for our children’s rights until they are free. An injury to one is an injury to all. These are the last kicks of a dying horse. The regime is tired and clueless of rescucitating this ailing economy. Things are falling apart and the centre can not hold. Victory is certain. Aluta continua.
