Dangarembga challenges Anti-Corruption Court trial
Miriam Mangwaya
RENOWNED author Tsitsi Dangarembga has dragged Harare magistrate Trynos Wutawashe to the High Court challenging his decision to try her in the Anti -Corruption Court when her matter “has nothing to do with corruption”.
Dangarembga and her co-defendant Julie Gabriel Barnes, accused of violating Covid-19 regulations, are arguing that Wutawashe misdirected himself by allowing the State to use a non-existent law.
It is alleged that on July 31, 2020, police received a tipoff that Dangarembga and Barnes were demonstrating at corner Whitwell and Borrowdale Roads.
Police found the duo demonstrating with placards, and this, according to the State, was in contravention of the Covid-19 regulations.
