By A Correspondent- The duo,Joana Mamombe and Cecillia Chimbiri are at the courts today.
They are being represented by their defense lawyer Alec Muchadehama at the High Court and at Rotten Row court by Mutongi Bhamu.
Said a source privy to developments:
“Their bail application hearing will likely be stalled because of the ferret team which seems to have taken over the case. They are running up and down the corridors.
At the regional court, it is also highly likely that the case may be remanded to May 5 2021.
The delays and blockages seem to be coordinated by state security agents. These agents are working in carhoots with the national prosecuting authority.
The lawfare framework is being used in conjuction with the political framework and so the environmental framework of our courts is now toxic and terrorised.
I see no light and no reasonable progress in Chapter 4 section 50 of our Constitution; (20:13).
The truth is we are heading towards a much more disastrous environment. There is NO RULE OF LAW IN THIS COUNTRY AND ITS UTTER CHAOS which potentially will exacerbate forced disappearances of many.”
