The Spokesperson for the Movement for Democratic Change-Alliance (MDC), Fadzayi Mahere, has been arrested by the Zimbabwean police.

Mahere with another MDC leader, Job Sikhala were alleged of communicating falsehoods by criticising the government’s poor service delivery across the board.

“Mahere was charged at the Harare Police Station.

“She was being accused of publishing or communicating a statement carrying the risk of inciting or promoting public violence or endangering public safety.

“Her colleague and reporter, Chin’ono is in court on Monday under the same charges.

“The pair is currently arguing to be released in a remand hearing at the Harare Magistrate’s Court,” a source revealed.

Human Rights commentators claim the ZANU-PF regime is unlawfully targeting the opposition.
