By A Correspondent- President Emmerson Mnangagwa is fighting its own compromised Judicial system after one of its Judges ruled against the regime.

High Court Judge Justice Happias Zhou yesterday reversed the reappointment of Chief justice Luke Malaba by President Emmerson Mnangagwa.

Justice Minister, Ziyambi Ziyambi said Justice Zhou should have recused himself from presiding over the case.

He said the speed at which the court heard the matter puts into question the motives behind the application.

“We do not understand how the Honourable Justice Zhou insisted on proceeding with the matter after we sought his recusal because he is conflicted,” he said.

“We are also at a loss as to how the Honourable Judge President of the High Court was excluded from being cited in the litigation which included all Judges of the High Court who have acted in the Supreme and Constitutional Courts.

“We are further alarmed that these proceedings went on through the night up to midnight,” claimed Ziyambi.
