Tinashe Sambiri|The MDC Alliance has dismissed Nick Mangwana’s assertion that Harare Mayor Jacob Mafume was arrested for “bribing a witness.”

Mafume was rearrested in Harare on Monday.

In a statement, MDC Alliance exposed Nick Mangwana’s lies about Mafume’s rearrest.

Mayor Jacob Mafume has been arrested again.

It is alleged he interfered with a witness.

He denies this. After his remand hearing, he went to Strathaven Shopping Centre where he was greeted by a woman he knows.

He greeted her back then plainclothes police arrested him. Nobody was bribed as suggested by Nick Mangwana.

We condemn the continued persecution of Mayor Jacob Mafume.

This is a clear attempt by the system to hamstring his work at Council and entrench central Govt interference in the running of The City of Harare .

He is being punished for being a member of the MDC Alliance.
