Zbc|The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has warned members of the public bent on instigating violence that they will face the full wrath of the law.

ZRP castigated acts of undermining the course of justice.

Speaking to the ZBC News in Harare this Wednesday evening, ZRP National Spokesperson, Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi condemned acts of hooliganism and said the law will take its course.

This follows pockets of demonstration staged by members of the MDC demanding the immediate release of their Deputy Chairperson, Job Sikhala, who was arrested after he allegedly threatened to overthrow the government.

Assistant Commissioner Nyathi also dismissed claims by the MDC Secretary for Legal Affairs, Mr Innocent Gonese and some sections of social media that Sikhala is missing.

Meanwhile the trial of Sikhala is expected to kick start this Thursday in Masvingo where he is alleged to have made his utterances.

Sikhala is being charged with contravening Section 22 (2) of the Criminal Law Codification and Reform Act chapter 9.23.
