CCC leader

Bail has been denied for human rights defenders Robson Chere, Namatai Kwekweza, and Samuel Gwenzi, with the magistrate citing concerns about reoffending and evading arrest as reasons for their continued detention.

A Harare magistrate’s decision to deny bail to CCC leader Jameson Timba and 78 activists for unlawful gathering charges sparked chaos outside the courthouse. The defense condemned the decision, while the ruling highlights ongoing political tensions in Zimbabwe.
